Update

Well we are still praying very hard about many decisions that we are facing.  We know God will open and close the doors and lead us down his path.  We think we have everything lined out for the Carver's Cord blood banking.  We are still going over with our selves and the doctors the best plan for when he arrives.  Jenni was scheduled to have amniocentesis tomorrow (Friday) but it has been called off for now at least.  We still don't know if we will do it or not.  Cord blood testing can determine H.L.A. but this is not as important as we thought earlier.  We are just praying Carver is SCICs free.  We have a place for Granton and Kaylynn to stay as long as they need to be separated from Carver.  Of course this means they will be separated from their Mama as well.  That is something we would love prayer support for because I know it is going to be very hard on Jenni.  However, if the baby does not have SCIDs be can all be together much sooner.  This is our prayer.  We have had another prayer answered and on September 5th Granton and I Fly to Seattle.  He gets his procedure and we will fly back on the next day.  He is looking forward to the plane ride but not very excited about more pokes.  Please keep praying for this little man.  If he gets good test results from this procedure, he will not have to get many pokes anymore.  Thank you all for keeping up with everything going on.  We are always looking up and thankful for all your prayers.  I will try to keep everyone posted to all the developments.

Lots of things to pray about

Jenni and I have been communicating with several doctors, counselors and coordinators concerning our new baby's testing, cord blood banking and hospitalization. We are also considering testing in Seattle for Granton as soon as possible.  We would appreciate your prayers for the complicated decisions we have to make including: amniocentesis for H.L.A. donor testing and care for Granton and Kaylynn (away from Mom) if the baby has SKIDs.  We are also praying about the delivery location of Carver if he has SCIDs.  We are especially praying for the baby to not have SCIDs and strength and wisdom to handle the details we are weighing.
