Baby Announcement
January 16, 2008
 
We are proud to announce the birth of our daughter "Lorena Ariel Samille Brobbel". Mom is doing fine and baby is in IC due to a Hernia around 2-3 inches where the umbilical cord is and she is scheduled for surgery tomorrow afternoon (pending test results). We would appreciated your prayers.

Note: We did not know at this point yet that this was not called a hernia but an omphalocele
The Hernia was also much bigger then 2-3 inches as Lodewyk wrote in the announcement.
