Your little baby girl was so very beautiful. I just finished reading "Summer" by Karen Kingsbury-- and one of the main characters in the book had a baby with anencephaly. I cried and cried and cried while reading the end of the book. I'm so glad you got to meet your little girl.

This is a result of the neural tube failing to close as the fetus develops. Folic acid is absolutely essential to prevent this common and always fatal birth defect.
