How wonderful!

Hope that the rest of her pregnancy continues to be "boring, ordinary, run-of-the-mill normal."

Be sure and let us know when the munchkin gets here.

I rarely post anything very personal here, but I wanted to ask for prayers for some stuff my husband and I are going through.

I already have a genetic, progressive, terminal illness, which greatly effects almost everything I do. His doctor is will be evaluating him for a degenerative condition, and depending on how that goes, tests will follow. Because of my illness, I am sick frequently. He is the breadwinner in our little family (only a furbaby), and he is so scared that if something happens, he won't be able to provide for us. We are both in our 30s.

I ask for strength, courage and patience in navigating the unknown, and the ability to accept and deal with the results, if they are not good news. I don't like to complain, but when it's my hubby going though this, I feel lost. At least when I get sick(er), I know what to expect. He's always been healthy otherwise.

Thank you in advance for listening. I have my rosary out and am going to be wearing it down over the next week!

I wanted to update those of you who were so kind to me. My husband's condition is still *unknown* but we have eliminated some of the scarier possibilities. Unfortunately, tests take a long time to get scheduled and followups even longer, but we have a lot of strength right now. Thank you.
