"The Gift of Faith"
|
|
K aye Colello, mother to Christianna, age 11 months, has begun writing a book about her experience as the mother of a daughter with salt-wasting CAH. Here is a short except from "The Gift of Faith":"They found a uterus". Those were the words that divided our lives into two different planes in this universe of ours. Like bugs trapped in drops of water, my husband and I became suspended in a chamber of round walls that we could not crawl out of. Our bodies stunned and shocked, it was as if we had gone into a form of suspended animation that we could not escape from. "They found a uterus", words that will forever echo in the back of our minds, those words that initially evoked terror, fear, horror and shame at what they actually meant. We all anxiously await the finish of this book that will tell "our" story. Good Luck, Kaye! |
