Yes, decision and indecision can be heartbreaking. It is sometimes choosing between a rock and a hard place. And there are no guarantees that we are making the right decision in anything we do. We must let the heart lead, and live with the decision we make. Thank Gd for my Sara. I do appreciate the miracle of her. And I am so glad you got to see her on your last trip.

Sara is a beautiful young lady and may you continue to have nachat from her and from all your kids I totally can empathise with the emotions you went through -we went thrrough it with 2 grandchildren who were both aborted—after heartbreaking indecision.
These things are not in our hands and the decision you make may not always be the right one–in part the question you must ask yourself is if you are emotionally and psychologically able to deal with the issues an imperfect and seriously handicapped child brings with him and worst of all the short life span that goes with these problems. Sara is a beautiful young lady and may you continue to have nachat from her and from all your kids

Yes, you were privileged to have known my beloved Avi for a brief time, and you and I have shared many life-changing moments. As a talented writer who shares so authentically of your own experiences, I feel honored that my story touched you. We all need to share more of our authentic experiences, to let people know that they are seen and heard, that their experiences, even if they are not the same, can be reflected and sparked by another's. <br>Here's to more sharing from the heart, inspiring others to do the same, and know that our experiences are universal.<br>xoxo Hey Bungalow Babe,

It is so important to inspire each other with our stories. The closer to our heart, the more we find ourselves in each other's experiences. I got so much beautiful feedback on Facebook for this story, women sharing their own experiences, talking about the importance of intuition. And yes, Pearl, we all need to believe more in our inherent strengths! Pearl, your feedback confirmed for me why I write. It is so important to inspire each other with our stories.

What a good reminder about listening to our own intuition, that trust is scary that we are all probably stronger than we give ourselves credit for being and that miracles are involved! Sandy
