Little Ben stopped passing urine 9 hours ago, his potassium levels are rising which is a bad sign. The doctors say he is unlikely to survive. They have been tremendous but they say Ben is pretty certain to have severe brain damage after having the surgery on his intestine and kidney shutdown, so it is perhaps better that he goes. We are so sad and emotionally drained
We are going over to India next week to be with him and Zac and work out where to go from here.

We are so sorry for your bad news but will continue to pray for a miracle.

Oh, Sam, and Phil, I am so sad to hear this news. I am thinking of you and little Ben all the time.
ReplyDelete(Sam, if the worst happens and you need to talk to someone about life after babies, my sister Emma had a similar experience with the loss of a premature newborn).
Dear Sam and Phil, I am so devastated, I have no words, just a heart full of pain. Much love Meg xxx
