[tri-med] New to list...looking for options

Hello All,

My name is Jon Clements, I live in Longwood, FL.   My wife (Naomi) and I
found out yesterday that our unborn child is probably going to have Trisomy
13.  Yesterday was an Ultrasound with a specialist here in Orlando after a
"regular" ultrasound on Tuesday.  What they saw in the Ultrasound was a
small head and a problem with the frontal brain developing, the entire front
part of the brain wasn't there.

They did an amnio to run more tests and we go in next Wednesday for the
results.  The doctor said that whether it is T13 or not, the fact that the
brain hasn't developed meant the baby would not survive.  I am at a complete
loss.  Naomi is 26.5 weeks along.

If it turns out to be T13, what options will we have?  I know you aren't
doctors but you have been through this sort of thing and any suggestions or
information you could provide would be great.

Jon
