Strength in the Ashes (comment)
I am Jewish, but I don't believe our "God" is different. We are all so interconnected, all of us. Our Tikva spoke to us when she was in my belly and asked that we allow her story to unfold. When people asked why I didn't just terminate the pregnancy, I told them that it was not up to me - but rather up to Tikva and God. We were all right - Tikva's short life was a miracle. I wish more than anything that she could have made it, that she could have stayed so much longer.
