Lisa had a routine doctor’s appointment yesterday. While performing an ultrasound, they noticed something odd with the baby and took her to have one of those advanced ultrasounds. To make a long and painful story short, the baby has a very serious defect that is, in the doctor’s words, “incompatible with life.”
