What an incredible and beautiful article. My only complaint is that you should have put "tearjerker alert" in the title.

Mr. Watson,

May I please use this as a guest editorial in Christian-news-in-maine.com ?

Thank you and the Lord be with and bless you, and love your daughter,
Jake

I don't think Michael Schiavo will ever understand the impact his decision to end Terri's life will affect children with disabilities.

Stay strong for your precious daughter!

What a beautiful article -- thank you for writing it. I'm expecting our second baby, a girl, on June 8th, and your article is a reminder to everyone that our children are gifts from God, no matter their abilities.

Now if we could only get Judge Greer to explain to your daughter why he's consistantly ruled against people with disabilities when he's made his judgements in favor of Michael Schiavo.

Thank you for sharing your perspective on the strength that it takes to be the parent of a disabled child.

"I don't think Michael Schiavo will ever understand the impact his decision to end Terri's life will affect children with disabilities."...

I don't think he cares.

I had to stop and re-read this three times to get through it. The tears kept clouding my eyes. I would also like to submit to an online publication with which I am affiliated. I will email you privately via FReepmail. God Bless you, Lora and your family. You are a beautiful example of victory over tragedy.

[My doctor brother later telling me how guilty he felt because he rushed in and put the life saving tube down Lora’s throat so she could breathe and now I have a life time of burden thanks to him.]

I often wonder how many babies in the same distress are allowed to die while medical personnel rationalize the "burden" being put on the parents.

True fulfillment in life is realized by serving others. I cannot imagine your trials. May God bless you and your wife as you love and care for your precious daughter.

God Bless you sir for coming forward with your story.

Straight from your heart, and into ours. Who are we to judge what God has given, and who but God can give life?
