We don't know how long the baby has to live, nobody can forsay that and the parents are also  worried on how the baby is going to die. I am glad that you gave this information. Maybe in my messages it sounds if I have worked it all trough, but I am dreaming of it at night, and sometimes a lot of doubts are my share too. I try to listen to them and give my support. We also find a lot of friendship and support in our birthcentre, especially in the postnatal talkgroup. It's amazing how the other mothers are acting towards the mother. It gives a very good feeling. On the operation it's not only the matter of survival but also the question on quality of life. They forsay that if the baby would survive surgery, he has to stay for at least 2 years in the hospital and will have a lot of operations during his life. I hope we can give the baby love and warmth and I hope that the parents will afterwards have a warm feeling about it, without doubts of having acted well.
