I am a new "follower" of your ...Kristen, <br />I am a new "follower" of your blog, as we have just been told that our baby girl also has a life threatening condition that will affect her chances of survival in & out of the womb. I thank you for writing this blog, as it's something I haven't been able to do yet - let alone talk about it out loud. Maybe writing would be a good outlet for me also. It's also good to read about someone else who has experienced the same heartbreak & fears that we are. <br />My reason for posting right now is in response to your comment following the "Fix You" lyrics. I hope you don't fully think that God needed you to be fixed, so Charlotte had to suffer. I do believe God is with us through all of this, but I can't imagine that our sweet babies were chosen to go through something so awful - - in order to teach us a lesson about life. Please consider that you & Matt are/were perfect all along, doing the best you can in God's eyes...that this was just a fluke or accident, and undoubtedly you will become stronger & learn from it as a result. I am trying to get through our heartbreak with that belief. You also said in another post that no parent should have to pick out their 1 yr old child's gravestone and why God would let this happen. I agree that none of us should have to go through that and God didn't plan for it to happen...it just did. It was an accident that God will carry you through. I hope you might find some comfort or strength in my perspective...as I have to believe we aren't being "taught a lesson". I like the song lyrics you have posted & chose for Charlotte's service. Again, thank you for this blog - you are providing me with some therapy & guidance as we are just beginning this similar journey.....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472985238912670715.post-18880191078777037202011-06-23T09:46:24.391-05:002011-06-23T09:46:24.391-05:00I like Coldplay but have never heard this song bef...I like Coldplay but have never heard this song before.
