I
can't believe it has taken me almost a year to word her story correctly
and make it sound the way I wanted it to.I have wrote it how I thought
it sounded best.And then today when writing it to a friend of mine to
put on her page I had to post it on here in bulletin for everyone else
to read it because it's now worded differently.I
am not sure what else to say other then I still am not all the way
content with it.But there are no words that could ever explain how I
feel about Olivia.And how much I love her...But thanks for reading the
story below...(hugs)
It all started in Feb 2007 I found out that
there was something wrong with Olivia threw Ultra sound.I was 14 weeks
pregnant with her.And little did I know I was going to go threw a seres
of test and being poked and prodded... At the first ultra sound they
said that it looked as though something wad wrong with her head.And
what shocked me was the fact that I was just seen by the same tech that
did the ultra sound not even two weeks before that and she said
everything was just fine. So you can tell I was a little crushed and
mad at the same time that they had missed that two weeks prior to this
ultra sound.Well anyways I then went to seek help from a high risk
doctor.And he was just amazing...
And he was more compassionate then
any doctor I had ever gone threw.But anyways he gave me the choice to
continue the pregnancy or to terminate the pregnancy.I was not going to
give up on the pregnancy.
I carried
her despite losing her. And it was not an easy task. I was very sad
threw the whole pregnancy.I remember thinking what am I going to
do???And I thought to myself am I being fare to Olivia to make her
suffer. Or is she hurting or is she ok? Is this pregnancy really
bad?Are the doctors really wrong? And I had to have an ultra sound done
every two weeks and check up every week just to see how things were
going.And I had an amnio done.And them things hurt.The needle goes all
the way in.And I thought I was going to pass out when they sucked some
of the fluid out to get a proper reading as to what was really going
on.Well only they was not able to tell much because the amount of blood
in the fluid.But with all the ultra sounds her kidneys were getting
bigger and starting to fail.And there was not much fluid left around
her. So the high risk doctor then told me that he wanted me to seek
medical advice from a State hospital that only deals with Pregnant
women.And I drove an hour and half away to find out from another high
risk doctor that my daughter did indeed have Meckel Gruber Syndrome.And
that there was nothing else to be done.And I still did not want to
believe them..I cried and I ached and thought this can't be true...This
is just not fare.And I made the choice to continue the pregnancy to
give Olivia the best chance if indeed there was nothing wrong with her
and if by the grace of God they was wrong...
Well needless to say
they was not wrong.And things took a turn for the worse in April and I
was swollen and uncomfortable as I could be.And my protein was up to
3000 and it should never be over 300 in a normal case.And my sugars
were was up in the 300's range and my iron was low.And BP was very
high...
So they scheduled a c-section for the 26th after failed
attempts to induce me and allergic reactions to patpocian...So on the
26th at 6:00pm I was wheeled into to the OR to have a c-section
done.And just the few minutes I was in the room waiting for them to cut
me were the longest minutes of my life.I kept thinking to myself am I
really able to handle this am I really able to take this on.Will I
break when she dies.Will she be alive when she is born.And if so will
she suffer.And then at 6:18pm my little princess entered the world very
quietly and passed away 31 minutes after her birth.And that will stay
with me for the rest of my life.But the thing that's most important to
me is that I never gave up I gave Olivia fighting chance even when I
had more then three doctors telling me that she was not going to make
it.I fought for her life.She was so perfect to me.I just simply do not
understand anything at all... I wish that I could bring her back.But
instead I am expected to live the rest of my life knowing that she'll
never be here.I never got to hear her cry or see her eyes.She never
opened them.
