Wednesday March 25th 2009 Our Angel Comes

On Wednesday March 25th I took my wife to the Hospital for dehydration. Once there they found the babys heart was beating above 200 and didn't go down after giving my wife a IV. At that time the doctor decided to do a emergency C-section. The baby was born at 1:50 PM and her first problem was noticable right away. The baby had a omphalocele.
This is a where the abdomen wall doesn't finish forming and some of the internal organs are outside the body. The next thing we noticed was a small gap on the left side of her lips. It is basically a cleft but not in the middle like normal. Next it was her left foot that we noticed. It was curved in our clubbed. Then we saw a skin tag near her left ear. To top it all off her heart rate was still racing.At that time the hospital called in for Life Flight to come pick our angel up. Lifeflight was unable to fly in due to the weather but sent a EMS unit to pick her up. After a hour and a half they arrived and transported our daughter to a fantastic hospital north of where we live.
