On behalf of my family i would like to say thank you for your prayers.. sad to say baby Carmela passed away last December 19, 2008 at around 4 a.m. Her heart collapsed.. We believe the baby is now with our creator.
It's really an agony seeing the baby suffering from pain everytime they injected her an antibiotics. We already pray to God since my sister gave birth that whatever will happen we would accept it no matter how painful it is.
Again thank you and God bless you..
Name: Carmela Abigaile Dominic (“Baby Tagud”)

Dear Friend,
It was four months ago (July 4, 2008) that I learned I will be conceiving a child. I was so over-joy, static, and excited because we have been waiting for this to come…And yes, she’s indeed God’s Miracle to us after four years of waiting.
However, recently on the night of November 26, my OB-GYNE has to make an ultimate decision and that is to deliver the baby at pre-term. The child in my womb is barely 27 weeks (based on my ultrasound expected date of delivery) but she has no choice because I was bleeding profusely for about 2 weeks already despite of the medications. I was diagnosed then with placenta previa partialis (which may have caused the bleeding) and with severe pain in my abdomen that may be due to possible complications in my gall bladder or appendix.
At that very moment, at the very bottom of my heart that was the first time I felt my heart was at peace and I was full of hope that everything will be OK. And I know deep in my heart that at that moment it was all God’s Will…God’s Plan… I believe God Listens… and I believe He will answer our prayers…
During the entire operation I was awoke because I wanted to hear my baby’s first cry at least. And yes, I heard that sweet cry of hope from my baby. I was so relieved. Again, she is really indeed God’s Miracle to us because according to her Pediatrician, the baby is at least 7 months and 2 weeks and she has better chance of survival.
The next day November 27, we were advised by the Pediatrician regarding our child’s condition. It was painful but we have to again accept and keep our hopes high and faith in God. She has to be hooked up to a ventilator since her lungs is too weak and she has to kept in incubator for 5-6 weeks at least for observation and proper handling. Again, all we have is our faith to God that we’ll be able to overcome this ordeal in our life.
So with this in mind, again I felt the pain and fear for our baby’s life because our next concern is our capacity to provide all her needs since we are not ready financially. As a matter of fact I have to discharge myself barely 2 days after my operation just to save what is left from us. It’s been seven days now and I have been thinking what or how can we make this through. I was very hesitant at first because I have this guilt in my heart as a parent who is supposed to be the “provider”. So I asked God for guidance and I know that this is the only way we can give our child a chance… A chance to be with us… A change to live… A chance to be one day give life to others too.
God Will Make A WayWords and music by Don Moen
Proverbs 3:6"In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. "
God will make a way, Where there seems to be no way He works in ways we cannot see He will make a way for me He will be my guide Hold me closely to His side With love and strength for each new day He will make a way, He will make a way.
By a roadway in the wilderness, He'll lead me And rivers in the desert will I see Heaven and earth will fade But His Word will still remainHe will do something new today.
God will make a way, Where there seems to be no way He works in ways we cannot see He will make a way for me He will be my guide Hold me closely to His side With love and strength for each new day He will make a way, He will make a way
