Thank you for your kind words Nancy. I will certainly let Crystal know that she's got many people praying for her and the family. I will also let her know, in time, about Compassionate Friends, it sounds like it would be a good thing for them.
Do you have a relative with Trisomy 13? I had heard that it's a bad enough diagnosis but then to add the Trisomy 18 (Dandy Walker syndrome) to it is just horrible. That's why it's not compatible with life.

Thank you again for your thoughts and prayers!

My great niece has trisomy 13. That is why I am familiar with it and can relate somewhat to how devastating such news can be.

Monica, I am sorry this is so belated, but since we just got home....... My Monica told me on the way home what had happened.

My heart goes out for your family. I lost a baby in 1984. We have no idea what it was, I was just about 6 weeks into it.

Please let your family know that there are others thinking of them at this time.

Dear Monica,

I'm so sorry to hear about your niece's child. My heart aches for her and her family. I can't imagine what they are going through right now. I'm sending prayers their way.
