After many months of wondering and waiting, God answered their prayers, Joseph and Grace were overjoyed to find out a new baby was on the way!...
But things didn't go as planned - instead of a home birth, Hannah was born in a big city hospital, 70 miles from home under the care of many highly trained doctors, at 23 1/2 weeks, long before her anticipated arrival. Hannah weighed 1 pound 7 ounces.
At one week old, Hannah is in critical condition with E-coli and pneumonia, and her weight is at an incredibly tiny 1 pound 1 ounce... Will she survive? Facing necrotizing enterocolitis, heart problems, and perforated intestines, Hannah's medical team calls her their 'little fighter'.
Follow the Oberholtzers on this 150 day roller coaster of pain, joy, disappointments, challenges, tears, happiness and hope. How they cope and keep their trust in God, and how their community rallied around them with prayers, food, money, help and gifts.
