Feeling Guilty

I feel so bad that I haven't been updating this blog. I haven't even taken a belly picture for a few weeks. I think this has to do with the news that we heard at my last ultrasound. It is so hard for me to think about what is going on with Elijah. I used to picture him in my mind as I fell asleep at night, and now I don't even want to have the image of how he really looks in my mind. Does this mean I love him any less? I don't think so.I still picture how he would look without all of his defects, and this is the image I want to keep in my mind. I have an appointment tomorrow to start going over my birth plan for when he arrives. We still have no idea when we will meet Eli and whether or not he will be alive when we do, and this is absolutely killing me. I hope to update more often, and will try and take another belly picture soon, I think in the future I will want all of these keepsakes.

Hi Laura,

Your little Eli has been in my prayers. I don't know you except from the internet, but your story has touched me. I am so amazed at how strong you and your husband are. You are truly an inspiration.

There's a song on the radio that I hear daily. And every day, I swear, I hear it and think of you. I wanted you to hear it and know that God is with you. Miracles do happen. You just have to have faith.
