I've been in a funk today because of the above mentioned news story. I first heard about it on the way to work and as soon as I hit my desk I looked it up. Don't get me wrong, I am truly thrilled for the parents of Amillia. I just hear the "coulda, woulda, shoulda" reverberating in my brain.
My son, Alexander, was delivered at 18 weeks gestation on September 13, 1995. Amillia's story makes me wonder what would have happened if my pregnancy had lasted four more weeks. It still hurts. 11 1/2 years later the pain has become a comfortable ache.
