Today, someone I know is in the hospital trying to get a stubborn baby to emerge. It is practically all I can think about. We have talked in detail during several functions over the past few years, but we are not friends. Still, I feel a connection to her.
It started when I was in the hospital giving birth to Lexi (15 months ago). She was in a different hospital having an abortion. The fetus she was carrying had severe birth defects. The doctors told her that even if it made it the whole 9 months, it would surely die in the first week. After a lot of pondering and praying, she and her husband felt that an abortion was the right thing for them. The night after I gave birth to Lexi, I held her and cried for them. I couldn’t even begin to imagine having to face a decision like that.
A few weeks later, I received a card from her and spoke to her husband. I was completely blown away by how well they accepted the situation. They were absolutely positive that they would have a healthy baby in the future and that life turned out the way it was supposed to.
Today, their faith proves to be right. She is several days past her due date, so her doctors decided to induce her. I have heard that it has taken all day for her to get to 5 cm and the pain is unbearable. Fortunately, she gave in and got the epidural. I hope their dreams come true soon and she’ll be holding her own beautiful baby girl tonight.
I know I will be holding Lexi and be feeling extreme joy for them.
