Witnessing Miracles

At thirteen weeks into my pregnancy, they told us I was bleeding so heavily that if it continued bleeding, it wasn't safe to continue the pregnancy. At fifteen weeks, my babies were diagnosed with twin to twin transfusion syndrome. If nothing were to be done, there was a 90-95% chance my boys wouldn't survive. At nineteen weeks, Weston's already weak amniotic sack was punctured in order to perform the surgery that could save their lives. My water didn't break that day and both babies still had heartbeats 24 hours after surgery. At thirty weeks my water broke and I delivered four days later. At four days old, Weston had intestinal surgery for necrotizing enterocolitis and was 27 cm away from being pulled off life support. This was his second life-saving surgery in the seven months of his life. 


What is it about these tiny babies that their lives have been preserved by the Lord so many times? I feel blessed to be their mother and to get to be a part of their lives each day.
