I had my sonogram, and it looks good at this point with a bit of growth difference between the earlier sonogram and this one. We're not out of the woods yet, but my worry level is so much lower now. I felt like I was riding on a rickety boat in a life threatening storm, and knew we had a large chance of dying. Now, at least I see a break in the clouds. I am sorry your family has to go through a fatal diagnosis. It's truly terrible.
