Please pray for our baby - part 2

We have been told that most babies are able to tolerate this type of condition during pregnancy and survive through birth. If they are born at term, then surgery may be an option. This would involve having three separate operations – one shortly after birth, one at 3-6 months and another around 2-4 years. We have been told that there is a 50% chance of a child making it through these to age 5. If they make it to age 5, there is a good chance of living to 15 and possibly into the 20s but after that it is unknown.
