Claire L – Trisomy 13
We have had a really happy, healthy second year with Claire! She’s been to the beach and is learning to crawl. She loves music, especially Raffi, and is very ticklish. At our 20 week anatomy scan, we were shocked. Our baby’s eyeballs were so underdeveloped, the doctor...
Lillian K – Trisomy 18
We make the most of our situation. We laugh through hospital admissions. We sing through the storm. And we love more fiercely than we ever have. All because of one extra chromosome. ‘Trisomy 18.’ ‘Incompatible with life.’ ‘Why would anyone want a baby like that?’ I...
