Last Wednesday evening, November 25, 2009, our little one went to Jesus. It has been extremely hard to undergo and accept, but we embrace this sorrow with open arms as God's will and in His perfect plan for us. Occurring on the day before Thanksgiving, it was hard to thank God for this suffering, but if we are suffering here that our baby can be pain-free for eternity, we thank Him. If we are suffering now that other children may be born in health, we thank Him. We thank Him for giving us the joy of loving our baby here on earth for 6.5 weeks and for the comfort of knowing he/she is with Him. I thank Him for giving me the incredible experience of carrying a life inside me, and for the hope that I can be pregnant again.
We named our little one Francis/es Raphael - names meaning: Free, and God heals. We are so thankful for wonderful family and friends who have consoled, prayed, encouraged, and loved us during this time; we truly have much for which to be thankful - thank you all.
Francis/es Raphael, Mama and Daddy love you SO VERY much and will see you again someday.
