Here is an email the church received from Karen:
Family
As most of you have been aware, I haven't been around much lately. I have been on restricted activity for several months. A few weeks ago, my doctor put me on bed rest after going into preterm labor. I have several issues that are making my pregnancy very high risk. I have slight placenta previa, but more dangerous I have placenta percreta and possibly placenta increta. Because of my previous c-sections, the scar tissue broke apart in my lower uterus and left "windows" in my uterus. The placenta has most likely grown into my abdominal wall, it is very close to growing into my bladder.
This week, I will be receiving shots to help mature the baby's lungs. The latest we will have the baby is August 25th ( 4 weeks early). We are waiting for several tests to come back and also will continue to watch the placenta with sonograms. It will be a difficult surgery, my doctor has set up specialist to be on there to help with any organ reconstruction that will need to be done. I will also have a hysterectomy at the same time.
I wanted to let you all know what was going on and thank you for allowing me to be a part of such a loving precious church. I will keep you updated about any new developments.

So let us lift Karen, George, their family and unborn child up to our Lord and Savior.
Be joyful always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
