Aww @Deepa, you are a sweetheart!

Welcome @Rhythm, I get so excited to see new people post here. How wonderful to be able to spend such a lot of time with your daughter.
(And sewing, that is second best)

Thanks @beachmom.

@KarenK I had to be grateful also due to the realisation of my own mortality and fertility. No one wants to leave their babies behind and no one wants the decision to be made for them.
