Prayers in Difficult Times

Today I am going to Kuan Yin Temple at Waterloo Street to pray for my 2nd pregnancy. In today's times, its difficult to be pregnant after 35 years of age. U will have to go for counselling by staff at the hospital before going for a blood test.

I went for the blood test and the results came back. More counselling was given and then after I did not budge and go for the Amniocentesis Testing, my gynae talked to me again.

The reason I had to go for the Amnio was because my blood showed abnormalities. My hubby and I discussed it and realised that after 6 years of waiting and finally being pregnant now, we will accept the consequences whatever they may be and so refused to go for the test again.

I told the doc that moreover, there was a risk of miscarriage if I went for the test and we were not prepared to take the risk.

When I was young and my family was going through very difficult times, my mum said that she went to this temple and her prayers were answered.

So here we are, hubby and me going to this temple to pray and my hubby for the 1st time in his atheist (one who does not believe in any God) life, going to pray is a Huge Milestone for him indeed:)
