A gift beyond imagining!

I have been following Nate's blog - Confessions of a CF Husband - for several months. Nate married the love of his life, Tricia. Tricia has Cystic Fibrosis. She was preparing to be listed on a double lung transplant list when she found out she was pregnant - a miracle for sure! They put off the listing and prayed through the pregnancy. Gwyneth Rose was born at 24 weeks. She is an incredibly tiny fighter - she is doing super well - beyond doctor's expectations! I have an idea her strength is even stronger based on the number of people praying for her daily!
Today, they got the call that there were lungs available to Tricia! She is in the OR now. Please pray for her strength through the surgery. Also pray that her body will accept the new lungs and there would be no rejection. Pray for her doctors and surgeons as this is an intense operation! Pray for Nate as he is pulled in different directions - wanting to be right there where his wife is and also wanting to watch over Gwyneth Rose in the NICU. Also...today, April 2, is Nate's birthday...what a gift it will be if these lungs do prove to be a match. It will mean a much improved life for Tricia...and that she will be able to watch Gwyneth Rose as she grows through all her "Firsts!" Pray and believe with me now in God's mighty, miracle- filled plan!
