We just got the BEST NEWS!!! Simone does NOT have Trisomy X!!! She is a chromosomally normal female, 46 XX!!! Needless to say we are 1000x relieved and happy!! And I'm crying a little bit over here.

"Things separate from their stories have no meaning. They are only shapes. Of a certain size and color. A certain weight. When their meaning has become lost to us they no longer have even a name. The story on the other hand can never be lost from its place in the world for it is that place.” ― Cormac McCarthy, The Crossing
