One of Bobbi Jo's quintuplets, Taylor, really needs some extra prayers today. Poor baby has been diagnosed with severe ROP (where immature blood vessels cause the retina to detach). Last week she had two eye exams (absolutely no fun and in my opinion the worst part about being a preemie), the last one showing improvement, leading her parents and the doctors to believe that she could avoid surgery. However, she was seen again yesterday and now needs immediate surgery on at least her right eye. Robbie and Bobbi Jo are taking her in to Texas Children's Hospital today for the procedure. The surgery only reduces the chance of blindness by about 24% so we need to not only pray for her today but until she is completely out of the woods. She's a fighter though so I have faith that she'll do just fine, let's just send her all the love and prayers possible to give her that little extra boost!
Bobbi Jo has pictures of her four girls and updates on her website http://www.savethewells.net/ for those who are interested! In the Photo Album under September you can see the most recent individual pictures of the girls and sweet Taylor.
