A Christmas Miracle

A few months ago, I mentioned that I had an anti-virus that wasn’t good for the baby.  I was getting monthly blood tests to monitor my levels of the anti-virus.  In December the baby was only two levels away from needing a blood transfusion (while still in utero).  If the levels got too high, the baby would go into anemic shock which would result in birth defects/brain damage.   I was a little nervous about it, especially because if I get too cold, it makes the levels increase, and well, it has been REALLY cold around here.

Darin gave me a priesthood blessing and said that the baby would be healthy without any damage.

A couple of days before Christmas I went in for my regular appointment to get the results of the last test and to get my blood tested again.  When I asked the doctor if my levels had changed, he said they had changed a lot, and took me out of the room over to his computer.  He pulled up the results of my last test and it said, “No anti-virtus detected.”  It is completely gone!   Yay!!  It really was the best Christmas present!

They also checked for Hydrocephalus (what Lindsay has), and they said this baby looks perfectly healthy!  So thankful for so many prayers on our behalf!
