My neice born at 1.5kilos/ 3.3 pounds - please pray for her

It makes me so angry when mother's do not look after themselves during pregnancy! Bronwyn Mia was born at 5:15am on Friday through a two hour labour. She was 3 and a half weeks early and only weighed 1.5 kilos! She is now in intensive care and will there for at least 6 weeks. She is 1 hour away from where my brother and sister in law live and they don't have the money to travel to see her everyday. But they have money to waste on drugs and alocohol!

It makes me angry because my sister in law continued smoking weed and cigarettes althrough her pregancy and had the "occassional" weekend alcoholic drink. She now says to me "i don't know why this is happening?". Well the doctors bloody well told her to look after herself and she didn't.

Now my little neice may not make it and if she does the doctors believe she has some sort of awareness problem.

Please pray fot little Bronwyn Mia :0(

That is seriously sick that your niece is in this situation because her mother decided not to take care of herself during her pregnancy. I am sorry your niece and you and probably the rest of your family has to deal with this. I will pray for her!!!!

Oh my gosh, that is awful, how can someone be so careless with what they put into their body. I am so sorry. I will keep her in my prayers, she is in God's hands now.
