In November, 2001 I received the worst news a mother could ever get. I was 8 months pregnant when my Dr. told me that my baby had Trisomy 18!! ( A genetic disorder) I was shocked and confused. I had never heard of such a thing and I knew we didn't have any genetic problems in our family. He told me that they really didn't know what to expect. He could be alive when he's born but most babys didn't live past 2 months. I felt like someone had ripped my heart out. I had to hold myself together for my other two children. I didn't know how or what I was gonna tell them. My son Zach was 8 and my daughter Haven was 3. They was so excited that they were gonna have a baby brother. My Dr. told me that I was already 3 cen. and that he could come at any time. He put me in the hospital and induced labor. At 1:21 am our little angel was still born. He was so precouis. He weighted 3lbs 2onces and was 11.5 inches long. We kept him with us for a couple hours. We got to hold him and kiss him. When they came to get him I could hardley bring myself to let him go. It was the hardest thing I have ever been through. If not for my strong bond with our saver Jesus Christ I am sure I would have never made it. In my heart I know where he is and that he is happy and healthy. I am sure he is having a wonderful time!
