Our son Kevin was gone before we really knew he even was part of our lives. He was David's twin. When I was three months pregnant I woke up one morning in bad pain and I started bleeding. I thought I was losing my baby. I went into the bathroom and passed out. When I came to I layed down in bed, and then called the doctors office. The nurse told me to just lay down and rest and if I was to lose the baby I would no matter what they did. The bleeding stopped and I felt okay after that day. The next week I went in for my first ultrasound. The doctor was a bit surprised to find I had had two babies but one had died and the live one was absorbing the dead one. This is normal he said. I was so happy that we had one live baby it didn't hit me that I had lost another one. Since then I think in my heart that God knew that we couldn't have handled two children with Batten's disease so he took one early. The twin was identical so we know it would be a boy. A few weeks ago our son, Matthew was talking with me and wanted us to name the twin so he could call him by his name and not just David's twin. So we talked and decided that since his Daddy had wanted to name David Kevin then we should name the twin Kevin. Because had the twin lived he would have been called that. So my sweet little Kevin is with his two sister's in heaven awaiting his twin brother who will join him within the next few years. |
