Baby Lincoln

I went to the doctor this morning. Lincoln is doing fine. I am 2-3 centimeters dilated and 80% effaced. (It's amazing what stress can do to move things along.) My doctor said that she is willing to take him early. She has an opening on Thursday. We are on the list. Tomorrow's news will help us in making a decision as to whether or not we want to be induced.

Please pray for wisdom. We want to make the best possible choice. Everything seems to be moving so quickly. We are both extremely overwhelmed with everything that is going on. We are also going to ask Keith's oncologist about saving the cord blood. It is costly, but if there is any way that it could save Keith's life, it is well worth the cost. Pray that we get good advice.

I am overwhelmed with the number of people who have responded in such a short amount of time through e-mail or the blog. Thank you for your prayers! I know that God has heard your cries. It is a great comfort to know that so many people are lifting us up to Him!
