I'm heartbroken to hear of Caitlin's passing, but I'm grateful she had 3 years with you and was so loved. <br />I read your message outloud to Tim, through tears, and found comfort in the thought that we did give her life. I've been so struck by her life being cut short, that I didn't think about the truth that she gets to live in eternity because we were chosen to give her life. Thank you for giving me that perspective.Brittany F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08346851056541268000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381649456395731757.post-89739852178170946602016-10-20T23:19:39.121-04:002016-10-20T23:19:39.121-04:00How have I missed this song?

Selah entered your life as a blessing and to deliver lessons no one else could. Unfortunately not everyone learns these lessons. If I had to go back, would I do it all again? Yes! Even when walking through the grief I wouldn't give up one minute of life with our daughter. Jim and I choose to reverse a procedure and thanks to the skills of the medical profession went on to have a third daughter Hope Victoria. We say she is Hope and Victory rolled into one. As you know, all children are precious,if we hold them in our arms or if they are sitting in God's lap. I'm sure Selah is smiling and giggling, looking down at all 3 of you and thanking you for giving her life. She is the one who will give you strength to get through this. Make her proud!<br />Ann Lanigan ( one of the GAWS- D'anna)<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15788341205632183084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381649456395731757.post-88754129544813179192016-10-20T03:43:39.460-04:002016-10-20T03:43:39.460-04:00My prayers go out to you and your family.

A very long ...I am so sorry about your little girl. A very long time ago, 1990 I lost a baby at the end of my third month. I had my two boys and wasn't planning on a third but after the shock I was so excited and wondered it this baby was a girl. I don't remember all the details, but I won't ever forget the ultrasound and words of no heartbeat. I was told to go home and wait for nature to take over. I too went to the hospital in the middle of the night for a DNC and got home in time for Christmas Eve. No words will truly help you through this journey. Time helps but that loss stays with you forever. Every year on that due date the sadness creeps up and reminds me. Embrace the hurt and pain because it is real. Talk about your baby girl as often as you want and do not worry if it makes anyone uncomfortable. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. <br /><br />Jan MarkJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08033457160516424683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381649456395731757.post-1170547875766708102016-10-18T22:04:19.865-04:002016-10-18T22:04:19.865-04:00Brittany,
