Got my first “So you didn’t find out in time to abort?” question today. Unfortunately when I said we did not want to do that I got the impression explaining why would be utterly fruitless. 🙁
Someone responded with “I hope you didn’t give that person a second thought.”
Unfortunately I did give that person a second thought (which is why I posted it – to get it off me) – only because part of her job involves contact with children with special needs. Which made me think “is that how you view these children?” The second question she asked was “So you hope there’s a chance the Drs are wrong? Drs are wrong all the time.” I don’t think the Drs are wrong – I think they are very very right. But going into detail just seemed fruitless so I dropped it. I do believe she did not intend to be mean but her choice of words was thoughtless.
