Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 http://www.mommylife.net/archives/2008/01/down_syndrome_a_2.html One Year Ago Today One year ago today I got the phone call. The phone call that I was praying would be good news, and never thought in a million years would be bad. My Amino results were in " I'm sorry, your baby has Down syndrome. " One year ago today I was being held in my husband's arms, crying my heart out. Crying like I never cried before. One year ago today I heard the dreaded offer " Have you considered terminating the pregnancy? " I felt ill. One year ago today was the worse day of my life. Today I woke up hearing " Coo, ah goo, baaaaaaaaaa " and looked over and saw an adorable baby grinning at me through the crib bars. Today I got kisses and laughs and smiles and snuggles. Today I felt more proud than I ever had before, seeing this little baby getting up on his hands and knees, getting stronger sitting unsupported and bursting with pride. Today I wondered why I was so sad one year ago, as one year ago I received news that God has chosen me to receive the biggest blessing He could possibly give. ~~~~Felecia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
