Talked to my dsil and he said that Nikki is in the hospital, she has eclampsia and her blood pressure was way up and lots of protein in her urine. What this means is she may be flown out to Vancouver at any moment, or if they can regulate her BP then she may stay put in the hpsoital there. The dr said that the baby will likely be born in the next day or so but if we can make it through the weekend then the chances of the babys survival will go up to 70%. Right now things do not look good for either Nikki or the baby! I will be driving down island tomorrow morning to see her and then not sure what will happen.

Please with all that you have pray for my daughter and my sweet grandbaby! Oh ladies I am so afraid for them... this being at work and not being able to do anything does not help any!

I know that the power of you all can and has done some amazing things so that is why I came here to ask for your prayers adn strength.

Hugs, Lor

Lori! Hang tight girl! Kendra had severe eclampsia with Grant, they took him ceceasarian section, he was premature, weighed 4 lbs. 1 oz. I know this sounds really bad and it IS scarry, but medical techniques are so much more advanced than they used to be!

So we will certainly start major prayers for Nikki, baby, husband, and of course YOU and your family.

And you are right, prayers DO count!

Love, Char

Lor, prayers are on there way. Traveling swiftly on the wings of an angel. Today I'll light a candle and everyday until your loved ones are home again. My thoughts are with you Lor and your family

The good thing is, today even one lb babies can be fine. Keep your spirit strong Lor and surround that baby and your dd with it.

Sending along my prayers and positive thougths for your dd, your grandbaby and the rest of our family.

I do know that Victoria General Hospital, has an excellent maternity and prenatal unit. I'm sure she will get the best of care while she is there!

God Bless Lori.
