She and I have been praying for Kaitlyn, Corrine, Mom and Dad, and now dog. I have a now 4 year old who was born at 29 weeks, and you'd never know it to look at him now. You've been through the wringer and back, but I just know this too will have a happy ending. And while you will never forget what has happened these past months, I think the pain will diminish and the pure joy that is Kaitlyn will predominate. Children are tough, resiliant and truly amazing little miracles.
