[@shannonreynolds5807]

I have a niece who was born with full trisomy 18, when she was born I'd never even heard of the condition. We were told by doctors she would be lucky to see 4 weeks, that was 2 years ago. Our gorgeous girl Penelope is still here fighting on 2 years and 4 months later, every day with her is truly a blessing and I'm so glad to see other families sharing their stories. My heart really does break watching this video and knowing you didn't get long with your little girl, they really are so special❤️

This is beautiful and raw. Thank you for sharing your testimonies and sharing Darcy with us. What a blessing she is.

We were so blessed, as a family, through her short life. What a privilege that God continues to bless others with her life too. Thanks Nathan and Marie.

Such a beautiful baby.

Wow.. these parents are really special. Such a heartbreaking story. :( I’m glad little Darcy was able to have the time she did.

[@darleenmccauley8220]

Being someone who has no family.. what a beautiful life surrounded by love Darcy had. She served her purpose

[@NoppacOdi]

Thank you for sharing your story of your beloved daughter Darcy. She is Gods miracle. I recognize a lot in your story. Our daughter Rachel had trisomy 13 and stayed with us for 10 precious weeks. She is a gift from God. I miss her so much, but Im also so grateful that she came. God is good. We meet her again... Bless you dear family!

Darcy is such a precious gift. Just looking at her beautiful little body and how perfect she was is so inspiring. Her parents are some of the sweetest people I have ever seen. To give her the gift of a beautiful life, no matter how painful it was for them, is probably the most touching thing I have ever seen. I just want to say thank you for sharing her with us and I wish you all the happiness and joy this world has to offer. God bless you 👼💖

A beautiful tribute, that had me in tears at the end ❤️😢

[@babypenelope6432]

In my 43 years I’ve learned nobody knows everything and doctors don’t know a lot either. If it was me, even if she was only going to live one day, I’d want to meet her and show her how much she is loved. I also want to donate her organs because there’s a lot of children she could save. Please forgive me for my ignorance I wrote this comment two minutes in.

[@stephanieann622]

I realize your comment was quite awhile ago. But, that doesn’t take anything away from your kind words. I couldn’t agree with you more. I think irregardless of how much time these sweet babies have on earth, they deserve the opportunity to feel the love of their parents and families. My heart breaks for parents that have to say goodbye, right after they have just said hello. It really shows how much love we have for our children. The moments we have with them are so precious. I appreciate your comment and I wish you the very best. God’s blessings on you and your family❤oh, by the way…don’t say anything about sounding ignorant. I thought it was beautiful👼💗

[@pamhayes-ix6gk]

😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@JaimeMesChiens]

What? Do you really think that “doctors don’t know a lot?” I suspect the doctors’ intervention helped give Darcy Anne fourteen days with her family. Perhaps you’re alluding to the “incompatible…” statement. A neonate with Trisomy 13 or 18 surviving fourteen days falls within the horrible prognosis of incompatibility. Regarding transplant, with trisomy 13 or 18, it is unlikely that organ donation will be considered. Tracy, if you’re reading this comment, did you and your husband have another baby aged Darcy Anne? That is a beautiful name. She was a beautiful little baby. I am so sorry for your tragic loss.

[@babypenelope6432]

@@JaimeMesChiens are you the type to believe the doctors are like gods and they know exactly what is going on? Do you believe that people have the ability to study on a subject and know more than a doctor possibly may know? Regardless, Doctors will only stick with what they’ve learned in a textbook and if your child is part of the disabled that they’ve read about then they will only give you answers for what they choose to list. Doctors don’t sit and talk about the remarkable children or people that have recovered from injuries and been born with disabilities and have flourished. They don’t tell you about those kinds of people, what they tell you about is what they think and they think that your child is going to be dead so they just tell you there’s nothing worth anything. It’s a good thing that we don’t listen to Doctors, because if we did people wouldn’t be walking around today and having the children that they have because we would’ve listened to the doctors.

[@annabrahamson4320]

Doctors know more than you!

[@thepinkflamingo2017]

Thank you for sharing your story. I am at a crossroads with my pregnancy, knowing that my baby girl I’m carrying has trisomy 18. All I’ve ever wanted was to be a mother and now having the opportunity this is the situation I’m in. It’s been a tough situation to handle.

„Auch nahm er ein Brot, sprach ein Dankgebet, brach es und gab es Ihnen mit den Worten:“Es steht für meinen Körper, der für euch gegeben wird. Tut dies immer wieder zur Erinnerung an mich.“ Genau so machte er es nach dem Abendessen mit dem Becher. Er sagte:“Dieser Becher steht für den neuen Bund, der durch mein Blut in Kraft tritt, das für euch vergossen wird.“ Lukas 22:19, 20 In 2024 we do this on March 24 after the sunset.❤

[@BrandonJohnson-bx1ht]

This is such an emotionally conflicting story to absorb. It seemed like Darcy was suffering so much while her parents were riding her on a bike in the yard as a new born. I know the parent are loving people doing the best they could reason with their faith. My girlfriend’s sister just found out her baby is trisomy 18 and is the reason why I’m watching this video. It’s just not clear to mewhat how much Darcy was suffering while the parents got to have their moments dancing. I wish this family the best.

[@Jdjustsaying]

HI Jason Romos this story of your daughter is beautiful and truly amazing! God bless you and your family! God is good! Darcy was beautiful and this made me cry!

[@Jdjustsaying]

I would never bring a severely disabled child into this world. I think it's more compassionate to terminate but that's my opinion and we all need to be able to make choices for ourselves.

[@Atmosferra]

И это правильно. Нельзя обрекать на мучения неповинное дитя, ведь оно будет мучиться, и не выживет.

[@hannewelter4302]

Mein Sohn hatte Trisomi 21. Wir haben es erst nach seiner Geburt erfahren. Er lebte 5 Monate im Krankenhaus. Die Ärzte kämpften für ihn (ist übrigens in Deutschland die Pflicht des Arztes, niemanden sterben zu lassen). Wie schrecklich, wenn jemand eine Mutter oder einen Vater verurteilt, der keine Abtreibung will (leider bis zur Geburt möglich😢). Mein Sohn würde noch leben, wenn man seinen Darm untersucht hätte, aber er hatte viele Krankheiten. Übrigens finde ich nichts in der Bibel, wo steht, dass Gott Engel braucht, da steht nur, dass er viele Engel erschaffen hat. Ist das mit Liebe vereinbar, Eltern ihr Kind wegzunehmen?😮

[@robynholliday4794]

our 21 days old baby Grace diagnosed with Trisomy 18/ Edward Syndrome was born on Sept.30, 2020 and since then she is in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit fighting for her life. going back abit..Grace was diagnosed with Trisomy 18 through ultrasound when she was 28 weeks. Ultrasound Doctors told us all the possible complications that we will have - ASD,VSD, kidney, lung, half develop brain, clenched hands, thick eyebrows, low set ears, etc.etc. We were told and counselled by doctors (radiologist/geneticist/councellors/fetal medicine experts, etc) to terminate the baby because they are not compatible with life but we told them we are keeping the baby come what may. Grace is 21 days old as on date (20.10.20) fighting for life through CPAP, intubator and oxygen support...fighting with blood infections, pneumonia, kidney & lungs malfunctioning to name a few. We did not lose hope abit because we have on our side the all powerful and able God. We believe that He will guide us through this hard times 🙏. Your video gives so much inspiration. We pray for Darcy and all the family members. God is good all the time. He is able and He never fails 🙏
