We wanted to have everyone pray as we go to the actual Maternal and Infant Health Clinic at UNC tomorrow. We are going to be meeting with a MFM (Maternal Fetal Medicine) Specialist, as well as tour the NICU and visit with another Pediatric surgeon. We are apprehensive about this because, as Dan mentioned, it is so hard to hear the things that are being said about our baby. We are trusting God to give us a standing before the Doctors to hear us out and listen to our desires to fight for this precious life. We have run into the ethical battle so many times and those who desire to give life value based on its "quality" not creation. This we will fight, as a matter of God's glory in the creation of all life and the life of our baby! We will post to let everyone know how things went, we appreciate your prayers so much!

Not sure when you were/are going to be at UNC, but praying right now for floods of peace to cover you. I got goose bumps reading what Kathi wrote above; picturing the Lord whispering to your sweet baby's gaurdian angel.
Lifting you and baby up this afternoon!

"Whosoever welcomes a little child like this welcomes Me...See that you do not look down on one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven ALWAYS see the face of My Father in heaven." Matt. 10:5,10. Jesus has already spoken to your baby's angel!! And together we will see just what power has been loosed in heaven on Baby Chappell's behalf here in this world. Abba knows that you will speak on behalf of your child. Go in peace, pilgrims.

I will be praying for you as you go tomorrow and give this precious baby of yours a voice before all of these specialists. Your baby deserves the best that can be given as each and every life God gives is a valuable gift. I am praying that ears and hearts will be opened for you and you feel His presence all over you and everyone there. God go before you.
