In reply to the discussion: Update on Baby Cassandra! [View all]peggysue2
(10,828 posts)29. Thanks everyone for the continued support
As you can well imagine, this outcome is a huge relief. I've contacted the various prayer groups working in Cassandra's behalf, many of whom were waiting on pins and needles for the results. People started calling and texting this morning around 9am; it's been a whirlwind of anxiety and anticipation.
But then, there's the happy, happy result! Everything we could have hoped for this little bit's survival and future life.
I told my son that when Cassandra is old enough to understand, he needs to press the idea that after her rough start there isn't anything she cannot do, cannot conquer.
Looking forward to see who she becomes. Looking forward to that glass of wine I deserve, too.
