She will always be in my heart

Well the call I have been waiting for all weekend came today. My sweet Sienna won't be making it to our home. They said the only thing they can do is just monitor me more closely but she will eventually pass away. I am meeting with the doctor next week to talk about my options which I am sure are abort the baby or they can monitor her until she goes. She also said that I can stick with my original doctor until she passes. This has been really really hard for me but I know she is so perfect that she needed a body and that was it. I know heavenly father has a plan for her up in heaven. I know it will be a great reunion when I get to see her again. My grandma passed away last night and I am happy that my grandma can be with her right now. I want to say thank you to all you fabulous DS mothers for the love and support you have given me through this hard time. Now it is just a waiting game to see how long she will last. I will always love Sienna and she will always be my daughter. I will let everyone know when she passes. I have had a feeling since Sunday that she wasn't going to make it so I was preparing myself for this call. I know it will take me a while to get through this healing process but she has a mission to fulfill up in heaven. I love you Sienna and I can't wait to see you on the other side.

I am very sorry Teresa. You and Sienna have been in my thoughts and prayers. I will continue to pray for strength for you. You are an awesome mommy - you gave your daughter life and have fought hard for her. Even though I do not fully understand your specific pain, I have experienced miscarriage several times and it is horrible. However, the heart does heal. Hugs to you.

Teresa you are an amazing woman and mother. My heart goes out to you. The love of a mother starts the moment she knows she is pregnant. The eternal plan is a wonderful plan from our Heavenly Father. I'm sure Grandma is rocking and singer to her 20th great grandchild. Love ya Pat

I am so sorry Teresa. I can't imagine what this has been like for you and your husband. Things happen for a reason, I truely believe that too. I hope you feel that way and not negatively. She will serve her purpose on earth and go back to heavenly father. Hang in there, if you need anything let me know.

Your testimony is amazing, and I whole-heartedly agree that you will be able to raise her someday. She will always be your little girl. Love you!!!
