Been married to Brian since June 21, 1985. He turned 46 in March; I turned 46 in July. We have a grown son, Ben, who was born in July, 1986. We were barren thereafter until 2003, when we had another miracle pregnancy. It was a wonderful time of recapturing youth & vigor, and we were very excited to be so blessed. But sadly, Abigail died in utero the week of her due date thanks to some very crappy medical providers masquerading as knowlegable professionals. Consequently, she was stillborn on December 6, 2003 after nearly 50 hours of sorrowed labor. She may have been born still, but she was still born and is still loved. Sixteen months later, we were blessed again with a third child. Anne came into the world after yet another wonderful pregnancy. She was born April 28, 2005 via c-section. Sadly, we discovered after her birth that she had a heart defect caused by trisomy 18. She died of congestive heart failure, at home in her mother's arms on June 28, 2005 at 61 days 10 hours and five minutes old. She was a wonderful sparkly child, who along with her siblings, are the subject of most of my writings.
