Hi. It doesn't look like there are a lot of people on here but for those who are, my son is 7 months old with full T-13. He has his issues but in spite of them, he is thriving. If anyone would like to talk I check in here often. I pray God gives peace and strength to those who have lost children and peace and strength to those caring for children with this issue.

" I'm so sorry to read about your baby girl. Thank you for your kind words. My son is doing well. We've had a lot of struggle though. Have you been to www.livingwithtrisomy13.org
It's a great site filled with parents who are either taking care of a child with trisomy13 or are dealing with a child that's passed on. My son's name is Matthew and he's on the site. God Bless you and your family!
