I woke up this morning to read about another loss in the DS community. A beautiful little girl, with a beautiful extra chromosome, was born in Idaho in May. She, like so many, was born with a heart defect. For four months, she lived a happy, healthy life. In September, she began going into heart failure. They performed surgery but she was unable to recover. She passed away on Saturday, on Josiah's second birthday.
I wonder why some live, and some die.
My heart aches for the families who have said eternal goodbyes.
Today, like always, I am forever thankful for the lives of my children. I am thankful for great doctors, good friends, and the best family a person could ask for. I am thankful for this life I have been blessed to call my own.
RIP sweet angels. Know that you are never forgotten.
