No Surgery!
We spent 3 hours tonight getting ultrasounds done (got to the Davenports at 10:15). We saw some improvement in Olivia’s Doppler as she went from persistent reverse flow on Friday to absent flow today (think of it numerically as moving from a 1 to a 3 on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best). As a result of this improvement, we have taken the surgery off the table for Monday. Praise God. We instead will do more ultrasounds on Monday. Our situation is still very day-to-day. I will be staying for the appointment on Monday and we will see what happens after that. We also got weights for the girls tonight: Ruby – 1lb 6 oz, Madison – 1 lb 5 oz and Olivia 1 lb. Most of you know today was Allison’s birthday. We thank God that He gave us the peace (Phil 4: 6-7) to enjoy this awesome day and celebrate Allison.
Thank you all for agreeing with us in prayer. We cannot overstate how supported we feel. We love you all.
We are continuing to pray for you along with the entire MBC Prayer Team. We praise God that there will not be surgery on Monday and for the improvements that you saw today.
We wold also like to say Happy Birthday to Allison. We love you!

Wonderful! We continue to pray day by day, hour by hour. We’re so glad to hear this news….both of Olivia’s improvement, and the peace that passes all understanding. This is exactly how we’ve been praying. “Faith, mighty faith, the promise takes, and looks to God in prayer…”.
Dear Matt and Allison,
I love you both! What tremendous emotions you both must be dealing with right now! I believe God is GOOD and is going to continue helping Olivia through this pregnancy. Ask HIM for strength and let HIM continue to do HIS work. I am praying for the very best outcome for all five of you. Please let us know if there is anything we can do. Love, Jan
