Excited but need prayers

My best friend finally got her plans arranged with her OB for her scheduled C-section. Her daughter has some heart issues (I don't know exact details because she starts to cry when she talks about it so we've avoided specifics) that will require her to have heart surgery soon after birth. She'll have her c-section at a regular hospital near their home on the 12th of September. They'll stay there for 5 days to 2 weeks depending on the babies health. Then they'll be transferred to a larger hospital about 2 hours away for the surgery with 1-2 weeks of recovery there, then BACK to their other hospital for 6-10 weeks of recovery in the neonatal unit there. I live 5 hours away and with all of the regulations for that part of the hospital being "only family" I won't likely get to meet my god daughter until she's about 2 months old

. A little sad and worried, but very excited to meet this angel. I can't imagine what my friends are going through right now. So thankful for my healthy girl.
