Our son Tyler was taken by-c-section two weeks early.I had gone in for a ultra sound and the nurse told me that something was wrong.She sent the doctor in the room he took a look and sent me home with an appt.for the hospital the next morning.Almost with out care the tech. Told us that Tyler was a Holo. baby and was incapadable with life.My doc.told me that he would or could live only a few hours up to a few months but would not really have a life more than a vegetable and could not live at all without life support.I let my family talk me in to no life support messures and Tyler died 50 mins.after his birth in my 8 year olds arms.After reading your stories I have to wonder did I just let my baby leave me when he didnt have too..
