A mother's countdown of the short time she had with her son
Time of Life
by Rebecca Watson
Just over 5,000 hours; that's how long I've known and loved my son. It's been 2,856 hours since I felt him kick for the first time and 2,184 since we picked out his name. We put 136 gifts on our baby registry, and sent out 43 invitations to our baby shower, 144 hours before receiving the devastating news. I had two options, 1 decision, and a million prayers running through my mind. That was 672 hours ago. He was born 4 minutes and 23 seconds ago. One second and forever; that's how long I have to live without him now.
