8/365

I have felt so tired lately. Not only tired, but stress and emotions have taken over somewhat. As you have read over the past couple of days about what's going on with my wife and her pregnancy, it has gotten both of us a bit worried about how things are going to turn out. We have hope though that things will work out ok. If you missed what's going on, she is at 18 weeks along in her pregnancy and has had some complications. Her water broke at 15 weeks, and without enough fluid the baby's lungs wont develop. But we met with a high risk Dr. on monday and she was very optimistic about there being enough fluid in there for the baby. Time will tell. We go back in two and a half weeks and will be able to see if the lungs have developed. If they have, at 24 weeks becuase of what has happened, my wife will be put in the hospital until the baby is born. They are planning on the baby to be born early, possibly up to 16 weeks early. Its amazing that babies can be saved that early. But anytime before 24 weeks they cant save a baby. So we are hoping everything turns out for the better. But it sure is wearing us thin. Here is day 8 pic

I really like this photo (not any of the circumstance surrounding it though). Nice work Chase. Keep them coming.
