yesterday was election day in the phils...but I wouldn't know who won...there were 4 births at the clinic yesterday and i caught 2 little boys. One was very little...4.4lbs. He ended up being transported to the children's hospital because we think he has a heart problem.
But the saddest thing is that his mum gave him up, she left around 12 hours after delivering him and went to work. No one knew she was even pregnant to begin with and she had purposely kept her weight down so she wouldn't show that much. So now there is a little boy in a children's hospital somewhere in the phils with no mother to watch over him in the incubator. He has Jesus and he has my prayer's and he has some great missionaries who are taking care of him. I think he will be taken in by a baby home that is next door to our birthing clinic. There he will possibly be adopted by people in North America. So i hope that he makes it thru and that there is a mother heart waiting somewhere for this little gift. 4.4lbs of hope.
