Please Pray

Please pray for the Hostetetter family in Jacksonville, FL. To make a very long story short, this family had a baby boy in December with a genetic disorder called Edward's Syndrome, or Trisomy-18. Babies are diagnosed with this genetic disorder in utero and are considered "incompatible with life". If babies with T-18 live long enough to be born they often don't live very long after birth. I have been reading the family blog about Tristan since just before his birth. His mother found time during her very busy day to blog about his daily life. Today he went to be with the Lord.

I cannot imagine the pain and grief they are feeling right now, losing their precious baby boy less than 2 months after meeting him. Please pray for Trayc, Yvette, Tanner (age 11), and Tayden (age 1) as they enter the dark days ahead. And every time you see your precious child, say a prayer for all the mothers whose babies now live in Heaven.
