Closed doors and open windows

Children are not fungible — you can’t lose one and just replace it with another. Nevertheless, no matter the tragedy, life goes on and sometimes it seems as if a greater force than mere human will is determining the outcome.

Wow. That is an amazing story!
I know that it is likely that fertility drugs were involved but it truly does not matter. I have no doubt God works in our lives in ways we can’t appreciate here on earth. I wish that family much joy and peace.
I remember when I had two consecutive miscarriages. They say the 3rd time works like a charm, and that was true in my case. I had twins! It is an amazing story to have survived a crash with so much loss. In our own community we had a similar situation with a mom who had nearly lost her life in a car crash. She survived, and on the night her daughter was born, her husband, on his way home died in a one vehicle crash. He was going to fast and lost control of his vehicle and rolled over trying to overcorrect. That was unbearable news, since he was also a popular teacher, and many of us had supported him throughout the ordeal with his young wife and cheered with him all throughout her pregnancy. To this day, when people call up the head of the sports department at the high school, his voice is what we hear urging us to leave our messages and he will get right back to us.
