I am officially the director of Social Media at my job.
Let's make helping Kathleen Hards our experiment. As I mentioned here Kathleen has asked for our help to find someone who will NOT save her child or give her some kind of false hope.
What she wants is for her child to be treated like a child. Not an ogre. Not a dead person. But as a child. If Kathleen's child was a normal baby, they'd help her. But because baby has Trisomy 18, medicine - to this point - is not going to help.
Can we find someone? In Ezekiel, God says, " 30 "I looked for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found none."
So our experiment will be: email everyone you can and link them here so they can read Kathleen's plea. Tweet. Blog. Facebook. Let's find an answer. Let us be the cloud of witnesses sent to come to Zoe's friend's aid.

I have been praying over this since getting Cathy's email this afternoon. I just know there has to be ONE dedicated doctor out there who has compassion to carry out his or her oath. Praying without ceasing for them to be found. Thanks Greg for getting the word out here.
ReplyDeleteJust look at how far and how great our Zoe is doing today.
Love and Hugs, Laurie
What about Cathy coming to Wisconsin. Could she stay somewhere near by until delivery and delivery at Froedtert? The doctors at Children's are wonderful. What do you think? I work in Labor & Delivery at Froedtert and could help her find a good perinatologist.
ReplyDeleteI saw Katherine Poythress' twitter. Can the family go to another location? Have they contacted http://www.realhopeforcdh.com/?
ReplyDeleteEven if Shands will hot help, if they can get Dr Kay involved, he may personally know a surgeon who will help.
I'm willing to try to to help too - I just need to know how far the family is willing to go, etc. And of course, I will be praying for this baby!
