One moment for an entire lifetime. How long will that last for us? How long will we have our boy?

Will my family be there? Will my husband's family? Or is this going to be swept under a rug - not important because it doesn't have a happy ending? Will I be able to handle this?

Honestly, after the response we got from some of his family.. I don't know if I want them anywhere near around me, or my daughter, ever again. A shrug is not the correct response to such news.

Yesterday, I was sitting on the floor playing with my daughter. I looked her in the eye, and said, "I love you." She said "I love you!" and gave me a kiss. It was the first time she's ever said that. I sobbed.
