Well see she is having alot of medical problems like high blood pressure, and she has toxcimia. So if they decide to take the baby it will be August 1st. I just hope of they take it that the baby will be fine.

Who's "they"? I hope you're sister will be alright! I'll pray for her and your family.

That's awful, I'm sorry. She'll be in my prayers :(

Ah man. My mom had that... while carrying both me and my sister. She also had preeclamsia, which actually turned into ecclamsia with me. Toxcimia is some tough stuff to go through. Let us know how she does in the next few weeks.

That's awful.Even worse is that August 1st is my birthday.

I'm dumb. What are toxcimia and ecclamsia?

I wouldn't have known what they were either if it hadn't have been for my mom having them. In fact, I have to look them up in a book now to really know what they mean--

Preeclamsia is basically high blood pressure in pregnant women (although other symptoms like excessive swelling and protein in the urine occur). If it gets worse, people can get the condition "ecclamsia" where they have convulsions and can go into a coma or die.

Toxemia (I spelled it wrong in my last past) is when toxins are present in the blood.

I'm so sorry. I hope she and the baby are okay. Keep us posted :)
