HUGE UPDATE!
Do not stop praying or praising. Praise God for today's visit! Here is the gist after a 2 + hour visit.
Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome--- not likely but not totally ruled out.
Chromosomal Abnormalities of the worse kind---- less than 2% chance.
Three weeks ago, difference of weight in babies was -----24.5% (not good)
Today the difference in weight was----17% (much better but not our of the woods yet.)
BOTH babies have normal anatomys. Organs, bones, etc are great.
(In 85% if chromosomal abnormalities, there is a problem with anatomy.)
Pray for more weight gain in Kaitlyn.
Pray for good health in both.
Praise God for a wonderful doctor and her team! They were phenomenal with us.
Praise God for a more positive visit today.
Praise God that we don't have to "plan for only one baby" as one doctor says.
Thanks to all of you that read this, that pray for us, that are there for us. At the same time, we encourage everyone to not give up praying. We are not out of the woods yet. Our next visit is in 3 weeks. April 11. We are praying that we will see another "catch up" in growth with Kaitlyn. If there is not one, then....well, we will cross that bridge when we come to it. We thank GOd for all of you. We thank God for the body of Christ. How do people get on with out Him?
Today was good, but emotionally draining. It was like every second was full of suspense. But, I felt GOd with us. I know He is and I know He is going to keep blowing us away. God is so good, faithful and strong. TOday it was evident how gentle he is with us. wow!
In His love.

Great job, God! We love you and thank you for hearing our prayers! It is so wonderful to be blessed by you and to know you! Continue to "grow" Lindsay and Tony during this time. Thank you for the anatomy for Kaitlyn and Kennedy, continue to form them into the beautiful little girls you want them to be. My heart is glad and my mouth rejoices at the work of Your Hands!
I pray now for their appt on April 11th. Go before them and prepare the doctors, the twins, and the parents for the progress of the pregnancy. Reveal clearly to all how the twins are forming. Amen.

Tony and Lindsay, we will pray for these 2 little girls; specifically that God will choose to bring them both into the world healthy and strong to be great servants in His kingdom. Your faith in this trial is a precious testimony. May He continue to be magnified and glorified through you.
Love, Cheryl
