His Race Was Short, But His Race Was Won | Birth Story From A Mother Of Loss

Sarah talk with Winter about her son Benson and his short, but impactful life. Benson was born at 31 weeks with hydrops fetalis due to a kidney abnormality. Sarah talks about the excitement of learning that she was pregnant and then the anticipatory grief they felt when they got the diagnosis that little Benson's kidneys weren't functioning correctly. Sarah talks about the few hours they spent with him after his birth and the eternal impact he has had on their lives.
