Dear Nahum,
The doctor checked on you and me again today. I've gotten used to the routine now, and the results of all the regular tests they do on you and me are always good.
You:
heartbeat - good
movement - good
amniotic fluid levels - good
position - good
Me:
blood pressure - good
urine - good
blood sugar - good
weight - good
You are almost 35 weeks old, and such a good baby!
It would be easy to forget that you have a not-good diagnosis because everything else seems so, so good. I still pray that somehow that your skull and brain — which we haven't been able to see properly for a few months anyway — are miraculously now "good" too. But no diagnosis changes this: the God who made you is good.
Mom
You are good
and what you do is good;
teach me your decrees.
Psalm 119:68
