Everything Doesn't Happen For a Reason

Everything doesn’t happen for a reason, sometimes it just happens.  Even though I thought we would have to wait 3 more weeks for the genetic testing results to come back I was surprised to hear they were in when I called to check with the doctor’s office yesterday.  The tests showed that there were not any genetic abnormalities, which is a very good thing.  It is comforting to know that our baby did not carry a genetic disorder.  So, we are left with the genetic tests coming back showing no issues and also pathology came back clear.  This means we will never have a medical reason for why our sweet baby had to leave us.  I think I’m okay with that because no reason anyone could ever give me would make it any better.  As far as we can tell there is no reason we should have to go through this again.  That does not mean that lightening can’t strike twice, but I will continue to hope and pray that it does not.

What we do know now is something we already knew in our hearts; our sweet angel is a little boy, Samuel Joseph.

Sam - Mommy and Daddy love you very much.  Thank you for making us parents.  You have changed our lives in so many ways.  Hugs and kisses!
