Baby William Jason Wendt: William Jason is here...

William Jason is here...

He was born March 11th at 6:24pm. Weighed in at 2lbs 13ozs. And was 14.25 inches. Unfortunately he was still born. I hoped so bad that he would at least have a heart beat, but I had a feeling that wouldn't happen. He had many visitors tonight. We had Sandy with Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep here taking pictures. She was so awesome and took many many pictures. I am very very tired, it has been a very long day - I'm barely awake typing this, haven't slept at all today. I am going to try and sleep now and snuggle with my little handsome boy. Thanks for everyone's prayers & thoughts.

We are griefing with you and know your heart is heavy, but we know God loves you so much...why life is so hard sometimes we just don't know...children are indeed angels from heaven and baby Willy J is smiling along with his daddy down on you and sweet little Miss Kayla. I'm so glad you have her to hug and to hold. We miss you and love you so much, Sara. We're here for you anytime and praying for peace that passes all our understanding. You are a remarkable young woman and such an inspiration. Thanks so much for letting us be a part of this journey and sharing your thoughts with us. We're looking forward to seeing all the pictures Sandy took. Love you

Sara, I'm Molly's sister, Cindy. She has been keeping me posted on your pregnancy and everything. I haven't read my email lately and just found out about baby William. Young woman you just keep lots of family and friends around you and hold onto Kayla - she'll need that as well as you. We're all lifting up your name to Him and He will carry you. Our hearts are so so sad for you. Just remember that one day you will see both of them, all together forever!!

Your William was born a few wks before my Carleigh and she was also born still. I wish they could've been born alive to have that time.

What is Anencephaly?

Anencephaly is a neural tube defect (a disorder involving incomplete development of the brain, spinal cord, and/or their protective coverings). The neural tube is a narrow sheath that folds and closes between the 3rd and 4th weeks of pregnancy to form the brain and spinal cord of the embryo. Anencephaly occurs when the "cephalic" or head end of the neural tube fails to close, resulting in the absence of a major portion of the brain, skull, and scalp. Infants with this disorder are born without both a forebrain (the front part of the brain) and a cerebrum (the thinking and coordinating area of the brain). The remaining brain tissue is often exposed--not covered by bone or skin. The infant is usually blind, deaf, unconscious, and unable to feel pain. Although some individuals with anencephaly may be born with a rudimentary brain stem, the lack of a functioning cerebrum permanently rules out the possibility of ever gaining consciousness. Reflex actions such as respiration (breathing) and responses to sound or touch may occur. The cause of anencephaly is unknown. There is no cure or standard treatment for anencephaly. The prognosis for individuals with anencephaly is extremely poor. If the infant is not stillborn, then he or she will usually die within a few hours or days after birth.
