I am so glad that this surgery went well, and you got to bring your sweet girl home so fast! Looks like she and Alex share the same chubby legs, all that yummy breast milk!!!!!
I totally love the room, fixed up all princess for her! I especially loved the 1st picture. You can truly see the happiness in her eyes and in her smile. You guys are so great in meeting all her physical needs, but also emotional as well, and it shows on her face. You should be so proud of yourselves for giving her such a happy and loving home. I'm so glad to see some more pictures of Conner's "sister".
In October 2006, we went for an ultrasound for our fifth child, and were told that our daughter probably had a chromosomal defect. We were urged to get an amniocentesis so that genetic testing could be done, “so the doctors will know what decisions to make.” The specialist told us that he suspected Trisomy 13 or 18, and if he was correct, then no OB would do a c-section because it wouldn’t make a difference for the end outcome. Besides, no surgeon would operate on her back (she had a meningocele – spina bifida), because “Trisomy 18 and 13 are what are called lethal conditions. They are incompatible with life.”
That’s how our story with her began, but it is most certainly not the end. As her amazing pediatrician said about examining her at birth, “I looked into her eyes, and she looked back at me and said, I’m here for the long haul, chick.”
