People asked me how they are doing.. She called me and we talked about 2 hours.
I wanted to give her time to heal and she called me first.
One question was ..Why didn't they tell sooner the baby was without organs. Her husband had quit Public Groceries and went into business for himself. This was 5 years ago. They were very lucky as they had no insurance. Baby was not planned.The test.. ultasound was not taken when it should have been. No Dr. would take her without ins. Finally they found a great one that would. By then it was to late. The Dr. saw this and sent her to the specialist right away.
The baby did not cry.. It had nothing but a heart. The eyes were fused shut. They are at that time of pregancy. The baby was held by everyone in the family. Cherie said when she held him he grabbed her finger ..With a slight smile. John age 11 held him and talked brother talk. He smiled big. Then daddy held him. Smile was about as like When Cherie held him. He was just like John on the outside...when he was born. So he was perfect on the outside in every way.
Cherie said God wanted him more.
I know God had a great part in this. Cherie and Charlie had a few problems. This brought them closer as a family and to God. They now bought Insurance ..They learned that, too. Cherie told me if she isnt able to have another baby. They will adpot. Here is her message to me by E-mail ..We are going to this.
