When I found out I was carrying nonviable conjoined twins, my husband and I made the difficult decision to "terminate" (did I mention I HATE that word?) the pregnancy, for NO other reason than we loved our precious babies and did not want them to SUFFER and DIE in pain. No mother wishes that for her child, and unfortunately, that was a guarantee for me if I continued my pregnancy.

I don't think it's fair for anyone to say you were being prejudice, especially if they have never been in your situation.<br /><br />But, as anonymous posted, I think they were referring more towards Down Syndrome and not specifically to Trisomy 18.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14666893723435035226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8581317431133132518.post-86624428234437716912009-06-09T15:27:58.204-05:002009-06-09T15:27:58.204-05:00FYI, the post above mine is not from me!!!

There are different levels of trisomy, and trisomy 18 is devsatating. In fact when they asked me to do an amnio for Jude I was hestitant because I knew all babies are beautiful and a blessing. Although, when the perinatlist took the time to explain Trisomy 18 I bawled knowing I wouldn't want this for my child. Hugs to your grand daughter, and I bet she is so beautiful Don't think I was being prejudice because I am not. I have told my husband before that I believe children with downs syndrome have a better understanding of the world than we do. They see the world through beautiful eyes, and it's so much better than what we see.Jennifer Ortizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14350225247489608653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8581317431133132518.post-63829898930573556082009-06-09T12:36:13.948-05:002009-06-09T12:36:13.948-05:00I'm speechless.

I have read your blog and have really admired what a good and caring mother you are and what a loving family you have and that is why I was surprised at your reaction to trisomy. With down syndrome there can be other health problems but they can be fixed. Children with down syndrome grow up to have very productive lives, even marry and live independently. My granddaughter is 7 months old and is hitting all of her milestones she has no health problems I could never have imagined why anyone would consider terminating a down syndrome pregnancy. I was very surpised to hear this form of prejudice on your blog - all babies are a gift from God.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8581317431133132518.post-63004036479259565862009-06-09T09:38:51.960-05:002009-06-09T09:38:51.960-05:00Hi, I have been following the April Rose blog for ...Hi, I have been following the April Rose blog for 2 months now and I'm really confused too. The thing that didn't sit well with me was the pictures they posted of the baby and then suddenly it disappeared. I have cried real tears over this lady and I really hope I'm wrong!

I am a firm believer in Karma. What goes around..... I knew a few ladies on my due date club that lost their children to Trisomy. It is very devasting for of course the families but for us mom's as well that were blessed to have healthy babies. I thank God each day for my children, but, it still does not make me wonder why my friends did not have the same happy ending. Your Jude and Emily are as normal as my five. I love watching the videos and reading the updates. We haven't met yet, I am hoping that we can get your way soon and meet with the kids. We will be back in East Texas in a few weeks. =) You are not too far from us. About an hour or so drive.

I can not imagine anyone doing such a thing...however their are so many greedy, unthoughtful, immoral people in this world. There were so many followers and people praying for this baby. All we can do is pray for the horrible people that did this....they need help! I am sure for you it is even more heart wrenching having sweet Jude and everything you guys have been through and continue to go through.<br />I still can't beleive it was a hoax!~Amy Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13128488513345765641noreply@blogger.com
