Prayers for Melinda, Sam and Babies

We received difficult news last week from Melinda (Mel's twin sister) and Sam with regards to the twins she's carrying. One of the twins is very healthy and thriving but the other twin's growth is lagging about five weeks behind. Their perinatalogist referred them to the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia for more testing, but wasn't optimistic. It's been a very difficult week for them and for Mel and me as we are heartbroken and sad at this news.
They saw the specialists on Friday and were told the second twin has Intrauterine Growth Restriction. Melinda is 25 weeks pregnant and the prognosis for the second twin is not good. Please be in prayer for both of the babies and for Melinda and Sam.
