    Part I
    Keira
    I follow the nurse into the next room. She talks to me about my rights as a patient and what to expect during the procedure. All I hear is “slight pressure and minimal pain". I try to focus on her words. "Do you know how far along you are?"
    "Uh...no."
    "We will have to do an ultrasound to determine the age of the fetus. If you'll get undressed and put on a gown we can begin. " She leaves while I undress.
    Slowly, I slide my clothes off and replace them with a gown. The table is cool even with the tissue paper. When the doctor arrives he is very kind and gentle. His words and tone are very comforting. He pulls out a chart and calculates my last period. "Five weeks and four days.”
     
    I look at him. He must see the questions in my eyes. You are almost through half of the first trimester." I do the math in my head. In seven and half months I would have had a baby. An itty bitty Lane would have been in this world. It’s time for the ultrasound. I lay with my feet in stirrups. The doctor briefly pushes the probe into my vaginal opening. The nurse and the doctor began to talk amongst themselves. I can't hear anything. I lift my eyes just as the doctor is turning the monitor toward the nurse and there it is ....my baby. My little Lane. Our forever love is on the screen.
    My heart is pounding. I begin to shake with uncontrollable sobs. "Ma'am', are you alright? We can wait if you need to catch your breath," the doctor asks gently.
    "Lane... I want Lane."  I sob even harder.
    "Aw...honey, is that your boyfriend?” The nurse asks stroking my back. I nod. “He's in the lobby, right?" I nod quickly. "I'll go get him. Then we can talk again. "
     
     
    Lane
    I feel like I am going to pass out. Watching her walk through those doors  ...it’s taking all I have not to chase her down and beg her one last time to reconsider. I love you so much.I just want to be there for you.  But I sit and I wait . And I wait. After less than an hour the nurse comes to the door, "Lane?"  I jump to my feet. It's too soon. They said at least two hours.  Oh my God...something is wrong. I would never forgive myself is something happened to Keira while she was here. I follow the nurse through the doors. I am praying to God for strength and to protect her.
    "She needs a little encouragement. She's asking for you." The nurse says over her shoulder casually .
    "Me?" For encouragement? I don't know if I can do this. But I keep walking when all I really want to do is run. You did this. You have to help her get through this. I tell myself  over and over.  I walk into what looks like an exam room. Oh my God...Keira. She is sobbing horribly. "Are you hurt? What's wrong?"  I start to run my hands up and down her body looking for any visible signs of injury.
    "I can't." She's almost hyperventilating. "I can't...do...it." She has a mixture of tears and snot
