Sent to me by my old old friend since we were 4 years old.

"What struck me was the mom knew about the Trisomy 18 diagnosis before baby was born and he attitude was:

"We knew from day to day that we had that day," Ginny says. "I would tell Matt a lot: 'I'll be sad later. I'm going to enjoy every second now.' So even though his diagnosis never changed, we just decided we were going to enjoy every second that we had."
