I received this prayer request from the Confraternity of Penitents and the lady in question has asked to be included on all possible prayer lists.  I know the power of prayer in the fish tank:

We received this urgent prayer request from Aimee Fleming who received it from another praying person. Please hold Lenny and her baby in prayer at this very critical time.
 
May God reward you for your prayers.
 
My daughter Claire just called me about a Filipino Catholic woman Claire cared for today at Saint Vincent's Hospital.  The woman's name is Lenny.  Her husband converted to Catholicism in the last year.  Lenny had a baby less than a year ago by C-section and became pregnant again right away.  The pregnancy was not healthy.  The placenta grew abnormally outside of the womb through the C-section incision.  It is growing into her other vital organs, her bladder, bowel and other places so that all the organ's blood vessels are tangled up with the placenta.  Doctors told her she had to have an abortion or she would die.  She refused.  They did an MRI at 22 weeks and cared for her as best they could.  Now she is bleeding. They will do another MRI on Friday and operate to do some surgery Monday to try and save her life and deliver the baby which is mature enough to live if they can get the baby out without harm. 
Claire has been delivering babies for about 14 years and has never seen anything remotely like this, or any surgery ever so complicated.  None of the physicians have either.  The best medical team in Portland will be there Monday.  There will be a specialist for every organ involved in the operating room to try to help untangle the blood vessels.  Claire said Lenny could bleed out in six minutes if they make a mistake.  .
Lenny has been in the hospital for three months.  Today the two women shared their faith and prayed.  Lenny was crying and said she just wants to live to care for her babies.
Her husband is terrified.
Please keep this courageous faithful woman and her family in your prayers.  She said she would like to be on prayer lists, so please also forward this message

I seen this on another forum I am on:

I JUST received this update:
(And I'll leave the name in since they left it in.)



To everyone who has been praying for Lenny.

She had surgery today. It went well. They took the baby out and the baby is doing well. Over five pounds. Lenny is recovering well and breathing well.

They did not remove the placenta. There will be another surgery at some as yet unspecified time.

Thank you all for your prayers. Please keep praying.

Praise be to God!

I got the original e-mail yesterday and didn't check my e-mail until late tonight!  This is great news!  I will keep praying for mother and baby.

Thanks for the update.

"The practice of the Church has always been the same, as is shown by the unanimous teaching of the Fathers, who were wont to hold as outside Catholic communion, and alien to the Church, whoever would recede in the least degree from any point of doctrine proposed by her authoritative magisterium" (Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum, no.  9, June 29, 1896).

“Wherefore, brethren, labour the more, that by good works you may make sure your calling and election. For doing these things, you shall not sin at any time” (2 Peter 1:10).
