I don't know what to say....

Yesterday Scott and I had our appointments with the doctors in Salt Lake City, and it did not go as well as we had hoped. The baby likely has a condition called heterotaxy which not only effects the heart but several organs such as liver, spleen, kidneys, lungs and intestines. We don't know the severity of the damage, and cannot know until after delivery. I can't really talk about it right now, because I am having a hard time not being overcome with sadness in front of my boys. Our induction is scheduled for either Oct 30 or 31. I may or may not update in a few days after things have sunk in.

I'm sorry it wasn't the better news you were hoping for Chelle. I know it's a lot easier for me to say because it's not me, but don't give up hope. She is a very special spirit and you can cross that bridge when she gets here. We love you so much, you and your adorable family, and I know God will hear our prayers. Bless you all.

Scott and Rochelle, I know how hard it is to stay hopeful when doctors give news that is hard to hear. I pray that your minds and hearts will be comforted and that you will be able to find the strenghth to pull through this difficult time. I love you guys and will keep you in my prayers.
