The kids had a dr. appointment today. They were told tha my daughter-in-law, Alicia definitely has "maternal Lupus". The baby is holding his own. There is still fluid around the heart, but it has not worsened. The inflamation that is causing the problem with his heart was slightly worse, but the lower part of the heart is beating faster than is was during the visit prior to this one. Trat is a real PRAISE! It appears that once the baby reaches 32 weeks, the cardiologist and the neo-natal specialist will decide on when they will take the baby. If his weight is above 3 pounds, they will most likely take the baby then. The sooner they deliver him, the sooner they can address his heart problem. Please continue to pray, pray for my grandson to grow and strengthen so that he is ready for his arrival and possible surgery. Thanks to all and God Bless. Mike
