See update at end of all posts, please. Increase the prayers for my husband, please. Thank you!

Dear Moms~

We went in for a routine, 9 wk ultrasound, only to find out that our baby was ectopic and without a heartbeat.

We had this confirmed several hours later via more tests/ultrasound in the ER and were strongly advised to operate immediately. After much prayer and consultation, we knew that was the best course of action for us. We thank God that He took our baby's life first.

I was operated on at 2am on Saturday morning and was in surgery an hour longer than expected due to heavy bleeding.

Please keep us in prayer as we are now entering the mourning phase and our hearts are so heavy.

My husband could be home this morning but not any other time this week, as his job is incredibly demanding.

Please pray for us. Our dd who is almost 5 is having a hard time with this, as she doesn't understand why Jesus "won't let us hold our baby here on Earth." She is desperately sad...and we are trying our best explaining.

Please pray for us as this is our 3rd loss in 10 months, but this one, is incredibly traumatic.

Thank you for your sincere prayers. I know they are efficacious.

Oh Maggie, my heart is feeling so heavy..offering up a Rosary for you each night of the week, during this very difficult and trying time.

I'm so sorry, Maggie!

I'm asking your sweet St. Margaret Mary to intercede powerfully for her family that loves her and misses her so much! It is a tremendous consolation and beautiful gift of our faith to know we have saints in heaven, but our empty arms hurt so much. I know the pain of empty arms and I'm praying for you very much!
