Four weeks ago today our daughter Renee was born still. I wish more than anything that she were still here with me.
We finally got the results to the chromosome tests they did. Renee had Turner's Syndrom and was missing an X chromosome. Turner's Syndrom is not necesarily fatal, but can have a variety of health conditions that are. The combination of complications in Renee's case was. The good news is that there is a less than 1% chance of it repeating in a future pregnancy.
It doesn't really make anything better though. She's still gone.

Awww Kara! I wish I was there right now so I could just wrap my arms around you and give you the biggest hug in the world!
My heart aches for your loss of Renee. I absolutely cannot wait for you to see her again at the Second Coming, and I would love for you to introduce me to her. Imagine what a wonderful spirit she must have been for Heavenly Father to decide that her work was done on the Earth at such a young age! He must have a greater work for her to do where he is. And we also know that no matter what happens, little Renee will be in the Celestial Kingdom with our Father in Heaven and Jesus Christ! I have not experienced a loss as close to me as you have experienced... but I hope that it might help you to know that the loss is only temporary, and that you will see your daughter again someday! Of course, you will miss her dearly in the meantime, and that's okay! I just want you to know that you WILL see her again... and you will see her alive and well! You'll have the opportunity to throw your arms around her and tell her how much you love her and how proud you are to have her as a daughter. It may not be a day in the near future... but that day will come when your whole family will be able to rejoice together in heaven. I encourage you to look forward to that day with joy and gladness! I'm sure that Renee is watching over you now... anxiously awaiting that day as well.
We're always thinking of you Kara!

I'm sorry it happened.
