My third son.
Sonogram showed he had a 2-vessel umbilical cord. They wanted to do an amniocentesis to determine the scope of his abnormalities so I could “explore my options.”
When I insisted that God gave me my son, their job was to help him be born alive, and I would care for him afterwards, the doctor turned to the nurse and muttered, “She’s one of those.”
Damn right I am.
My boy is 17, extremely smart, loving, straight A student, with a super sweet, very pretty 19 year old girlfriend who can’t wait to marry him. He already has an internship lined up at a tech company.
God knew what He was doing.
So shocking a doctor could be so calloused and heardhearted.
I’m glad you stepped forward like a man and your son is well!
