Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16

PLEASE PRAY for fellow homeschool blogger's family
UPDATE: Read Missey's Obituary HERE
Newest Update HERE:
UPDATE BELOW:
I just had it confirmed -- fellow homeschool blogger Missy passed away unexpectedly yesterday after giving birth.
I am waiting to learn more details. I remember when she emailed our loop (Basically Beechick - she was the list mama) that she was pregnant.
Honestly, I am shocked beyond words.
Just pray for her family, and lets wait for more details, which should be forthcoming later today.
This was cut and pasted from the email on the loop where Missy was our list mom:
Yesterday Missey went in to get her stress test that she's been getting every 2 weeks. The test showed that Missey was loosing amniotic fluid and that she had lost enough of it for it to be alarming. That's when they decided to go ahead and take the baby.
After they lifted the baby from her body, some of the amniotic fluid got into her blood stream and caused a blood clot, which is what caused her death. She never came out of surgery. Her mil said that this only Happens 1 in 200,000.
She said that the girls are holding up OK. She said that they all slept, no clung, together in their bed last night. The oldest got up at one point and asked if little Nathan could also sleep with them, so they moved him into the bed with the 3 girls. She said that Tom is just in a daze. He has gone to the hospital this morning to be able to feed the baby.
Tom and Missey had chosen a name for the baby, but after Missey passed on they decided to name the baby Melissa Kate.

I have been so SHOCKED by this announecment and sad news today that I have spent most of the day in tears. I am going to committ to pray for these five children every day. From reading Missy's blog, it is clear she is a woman who prayed for her babies. Now that she is in Heaven with our Father, let's pick up those prayers for her babies and intercede for them.
