Tough situation, but I can tell you what won't work. Prayer.
I am a non-religious person, agnostic on a good day an atheist on the rest, however, never tell a person of faith not to pray. Even if they are using it as the sole remedy you should only suggest that they pursue other means as well as prayer.
Telling someone not to pray in this situation robs them of two things:
1. As a person of faith if they do not pray and the outcome is not perfect in the long run then they have set themselves up for self-loathing later for not doing everything they could for their child.
2. Persons of faith derive strength and hope from the ritual of praying and if there is anything the OP and their spouse need now it is strength and hope.
Don't overlook the fact that it may be people like us that are wrong.
