Is Hope's birthday! Rosie (my scheduler) called this morning to arrange our next trip up to Indy, and she had Hope's birthday all set up as well! The c-section is scheduled for 11 AM, and then Hope has been scheduled for surgery the next morning. While that could change, it was best for them to schedule Hope into the neurosurgeon's day--that way he'll have time blocked off for her in the hopes that she'll be strong enough for surgery. Obviously, all of this is subject to change if I go into labor earlier (pray that doesn't happen!), or if Hope is delivered but not stable enough for surgery (pray that doesn't happen either!). The rough outline of Hope's birthday is delivery at 11, the neonatologist checking her over, an MRI that afternoon to give more detailed and specific info about her brain and the blood vessels in the sac, David and I getting to consult with the neurosurgeon that afternoon, and then surgery the next morning.
David and I will get to meet with the neurosurgeon (Dr. Young) as well as the neonatologist in Indy in a few weeks. We have a million questions for them, and are hopeful that we'll have a few more answers at that time. Until then, we continue to pray that Hope will be kept safe, and continue to grow!

Anna, just a reminder that we are praying. Sam remembers at every meal to pray for Baby Hope.
