I am happy to announce that Caitlyn Elizabeth Schultz was born via c-section on Tuesday, March 23 in perfect condition. She weighed 7 lbs 13 oz and was 19 inches long.
We were concerned that the surgery would be very difficult because of all the problems Cathy had in the past with the other 4 c-sections. In fact, the OBGyn who did the c-section asked another general surgeon to assist him just in case there were complications. From my perspective it looked like a text-book delivery. The doctor said that their were no problems whatsoever. Cathy says she feels really good considering all that was done. She is up and walking around and is planning on going home Thursday or Friday.
The staff here at the hospital are really wonderful. One of the nurses who did our birth certificate said she would personally take our application to the county office after her shift ended so that we could get the certificate issued early. She knows that we only have 8 weeks before we return to Tanzania Africa. If we had to wait the normal 2 weeks for the birth certificate it would put a big time crunch on us to get Caitlyn’s passport issued in time. It is such a blessing to see how God cares for his children. It is such a blessing to have you all praying for us. Thank you so much.
