Catherine Therese Update

It wasn't the news we were hoping for but of course it could be worse. Catherine's growth had slowed down over the past two weeks so we are now planning a delivery date. Please pray for Nicole and Catherine.

Fr. Hahn will be at the delivery to baptize Catherine. She will then be moved to Nationwide Children's Hospital. The surgery will take place about 24-48 hours after the birth. Please keep us in your prayers during the recovery time as well which could be extended. The nurse said to plan on 4 to 6 weeks from the due date.
