We are coming up to our two month anniversary of being here in Saranda!! :) As I informed in my last blog post we had found out that we were expecting our 5th child to come into the world in February 2015!! Today July 19th we went to the maternity ward here in Saranda b/c we had had a miscarriage with our little Isaac Scott Wilson!! We were only 10 weeks but we felt like the Lord was going to give us a little boy and we believed this baby was a boy!! We went to the ward this morning which literally looks like a prison or dungeon. I had to have a D&C to get the remaining tissue out which in the US would have been done with serious pain medication but here... pain medication doesn't exist evidently!! So... needless to say I was in so much pain I burst into to tears!! Then the nurse looking after me comes and slaps me in the face as to tell me 'it is okay' but that wasn't going through my mind by any means!! These people have no hospitality at all and no courtesy!! I was told at the end of my 3 to 4 hour stay that the Albanian ladies come in have abortion and walk out in 30 minutes!! Which was true because there was another lady that came in and I heard her shouting while having the same process then laying down in a bed across the isle from me and then getting up and leaving!! She came in by herself then left by herself!! I, on the other hand, had my wonderful, amazing husband by my side!! He cried when I was crying, he petted me when I needed it, he kissed me when I needed it, and he was just there!! I am so glad that I have an Heavenly Father that is the same way and even more so!! My Lord was with me every step of the way and He gave us both sweet peace in our hearts that His Mighty Hand was on the situation!! I know He still loves me even when at times I don't understand why!!
Love and prayers!!
