Choosing Thomas -- Inside a family's decision to let their son live, if ...

***First a little side note: Angie...I thought I was the last one to see this video. So...WE must be behind here.***

Anyway, I encourage you all to watch this video. Each life, born or unborn, is so very, very precious. It is easier said than done, but the Lord only gives us what we can handle. There is a purpose for each life decision/situation that the Lord hands us. My hat is off to these parents. I can remember the nervous anticipation of having my first child. My stomach was in knots for what the future held. I can't imagine being blessed with such a precious, little life and then having it taken away from me so short into life. I feel so blessed to have two HEALTHY children, and I have to remember from day to day to thank the Lord for every little part of them. I will tell you that this video is VERY hard to watch...especially if you are a mother. I am a nurse by profession and I have watched several people take their last breathes, but I could never have anticipated the emotions that go with watching a infant take their last breathes. Make me want to hold my children close and never, never let them go.
