Hello dear friends and family of Karen, Tom and their sweet crew~
This is Joy updating for Karen - it's been an eventful morning for the Olsens! This morning Karen suspected she was leaking amniotic fluid. She went to her Dr. to get checked out, and her suspicions were confirmed. Karen was given steroids to help Adalynn's lungs develop more quickly; she was also given medication to keep her from contracting and medication to keep any infection away. They are currently taking Karen by ambulance down to Little Rock, and Tom is following in their car. I do not know any further details of how much longer they suspect to keep Adalynn in her Mommy's belly, but Karen said she will probably come "sooner rather than later."
Please pray for the Olsen crew at this time!!! Health and strength for this precious miracle, sweet Adalynn Mirakel, and a special, God-given peace for Karen, Tom, Crist, Dane, Ty, and the rest of their family. Please also remember to pray for Karen's health during the delivery of Adalynn, whenever that may be! Thank you so much for interceding for this family - I know they covet your prayers during this time. We will continue to post more as things develop. Karen's words to me were "God is always in the '?' "
Do we know how many weeks along Karen is? I guess what I'm wondering is, how premature will Adalynn be? Thanks for posting. Please keep us updated!
ReplyDeleteAccording to yesterday's ultrasound, Karen is 30 weeks along.
