Hannah was in labor in a Texas hospital when she suddenly felt that something was very wrong. She said, “I said I felt like I’m going to faint or pass out. The room just began narrowing,” so she was immediately prepped for an emergency C-section.

Hannah had experienced a placental abruption and was losing a lot of blood, and the baby was showing no signs of life. Dr. Kinion Whittington, Hannah’s OB-GYN physician, said, “After about 10 minutes if you don’t have a fetal heart rate, it’s just a futile effort.”

They Asked For Prayers

Hannah and Jacob found out that Urias might never walk, talk or feed himself, and that he probably would have cerebral palsy and seizures, but Urias’s 40% chance of surviving didn’t stop the family from battling in prayers.
