The test results came back "abnormal" and followed with many detailed ultrasounds. They explained the condition somewhat, while I did much of my own research. They explained that most children born with this condition only live hours, perhaps days and never past a year. They asked me what I wanted to do? We answered "Just send us home. All we wanted was a baby, whether just for the 9 months we are allowed to carry in my womb or a few hours or however long they live. We will just go home and cherish the rest of our pregnancy." Our little girl was born without the condition and is about to turn 8. I have never forgot this condition and will remain aware for the rest of our lives and pray for families that live with the challenge. Thank you for the blog.mollynoreply@blogger.com
