My brother in law and his wife are going through the worst thing that could happen to any parent. Losing a child. Much worse though, the only time they will get to spend with him/her will be in the womb.
Their baby has potter's syndrome. Through some research I have found many stories. All heart breaking and inspiring. My favorite website was http://www.nowilaymedowntosleep.org/stories/ It is an organization of photographers who volunteer to take pictures of babies who will not have the chance to live a full life. They believe the pictures will help the parents through the grieving process. A lot of the babies do not make it to full term and the pictures are still amazing and mean so much to these families.
I cannot express with any words how much sorrow I feel for my brother and sister. I see the pain in their eyes and it makes me want to hug them, cry for them and take on their pain. I pray they will experience a miracle through this hard time. If there was anything I could do I would do it. If there was anything I could say I would say it. The only thing that will ever be enough is our prayers.
Prayers out to all those who have, are, and ever will lose one of their precious babies.
