As you know my wife had a baby girl on September 3, 2009, our third daughter.

Her picture is here.

What a miraculous baby. First of all, the baby, Clarissa, would not be here naturally if I were dead. I talk extensively about this issue in my book, “A Light in the Midst of Darkness”. You can get a free pdf (downloadable) book by filling in the information at the right of your screen.

My wife had a healthy, full term pregnancy. She had 4 c-sections in the past. She saw a midwife through 34 weeks of pregnancy and had a great experience. If you are looking for a midwife for yourself or someone else, here’s her info:

We used her services for 2 of our births and it was great both times. Even though both ended up with c-sections, the care was wonderful.

In the short, during the birth of our 4th child, my wife labored for around 32 hours, went into the birthing pool at our house, but never progressed. I had to make the decision that for the sake of the health of my wife and baby, we should go to the hospital and have the c-section. Tough decision, but hind sight, it was worth it. That was 5 years ago in January of 2004.

Due to the number of c-sections, my wife’s uterus was extremely thin. Of course we didn’t even consider this. The doctor, Dr. Guilliams, who did the surgery (and in my opinion, did a great job), told us afterwards (and he is the most positive when it comes to multiple c-sections). If she, my wife, would have gone into labor there would have been some severe health concerns, like ruptured uterus, or severe bleeding. Thank God, nothing like that happened.

God orchestrated the whole thing from the beginning, without us even being aware. He provided the finances to do the surgery and the hospital stay, the health, and of course our future needs.

God knows your needs and will provide for them. Your job is to trust in Him.
