Well folks, a miracle has happened!
We just heard that the tests came back NEGATIVE!
He does not have Trisomy 18.
There is still a chance that Levi will have some brain damage, and he will have to have surgery once he is born to remove the two cysts in his brain, but he will still have an amazing chance at life! They are calling him a Miracle Baby – and saying that this type of thing NEVER happens.
They will continue to monitor him throughout the next 3-4 months and we will get the full tests results back in 2 weeks. (this will show any other possible syndromes, etc). We will meet with a specialist to see how to correct his clubbed foot – and what kind of therapy, etc this will entail.
Levi is already special.
He is already strong.
And he is already feeling SO loved.
Congrats! That’s so wonderful to hear! What a little miracle baby indeed!

So happy for you!
My son had a cyst show up on an ultrasound at 23 weeks. They did another at 25 weeks and it was gone…the dr. mentioned that sometimes the vessels in the brain aren’t big enough to allow the cyst to pass, once they grew, it passed…of course they didn’t mention this until they were completely gone.
Happy tears are being shed for you Kendall! The power of prayer is a miracle and I truly believe that. I will personally keep Levi and you all in my heart & prayers continually. XO
Praise God! Will continue to pray!
So happy to hear the good news! My brother was born with club feet and you’d never know it – he was an amazing high school and college athlete. My mom’s biggest gripe was how difficult it was to find sleepers without feet to fit over his cast. Hoping to hear more good news in the coming weeks when you get the other results back!
Praise God for this news! I am so relieved for you guys! God is good!
So so happy to hear. ๐
Us miracle babies are a special bunch. <3
