FYI:

Spina bifida is best prevented by taking 400 micrograms (mcg) of folic acid every day. Studies have shown that if all women who could become pregnant were to take a multivitamin with the B-vitamin folic acid, the risk of neural tube defects could be reduced by up to 70%.

Since half of all pregnancies in the United States are unplanned, women of childbearing age - even if they are not currently planning to get pregnant - should take 400 micrograms (mcg) of folic acid every day to reduce their risk of having a child with Spina Bifida.

wow,i know that god will give you the grace to get through this.your story is very inspirational and encouraging.i can empathize with you both because, my husband and i are the parents of 4 children,ages 11,10,9,&1 and 2 of our children have spinabifida.my 10 year old,which is our only son,and my 1 year old.there levels are both L-4″s,but strangely,our daughter diagnosis is that she will never walk. our children also have toileting issues and battles with monthly urinary tract infections.oh, and not to mention the constant visits to the hospital and countless numbers of surgeries that they have had on there hips,legs and feet.oh,and how can we forget the shunt replacements.my husband and i are very encourage by your story,all we can do is pray that god will continue to give you and your husband the grace to go through it, and we ask that you all wil do the same for us.

My heart and prayers goes out to them. I had no idea they were going through this. I pray that God will heal little Sophie’s body. It breaks my heart to see sick children.
