Susan,
You and your family have my deepest sympathy. It is stories like
yours that have sustained most of us here. Rebecca will be deeply
missed by you and all of the other parents on Wings. What a blessing
to have been able to have her with for over 14 years. Another T-18
grandmother lives in a town 6 miles from me. Her granddaughter was
about 14 when I met her in 2002. I was so thankful to have met them
even though I have not kept in touch. Her mom was a teacher and a
very busy single mom living in the Twin City metro area - not close
to me at all. But it still felt good for me to know that T-18
children do not have to die before birth. And this list has been so
helpful to me. Thank you for joining us. You will bring great
insight to us.
Again, my deepest sympathy to you - and to all of the other new moms
on this list.
