In Jan of 2009 I got a call from my sister in law telling me a family member had a child and abondoned it. Bella was born at 24-26 weeks estimated because her mother had very little prenatal care. God watches over us because even though Bella's biological mother was a drug addict and was high when she gave birth, Bella tested for no drugs in her system! My sister in law told me they were looking for someone to take the baby but at the time she was in the NICU in Columbus Ohio. After prayer and discussing with my family we decided to take this little girl. I called and arranged to go see the baby and was told that she had no one with her and to the knowledge of the nurse she had no visitors! I basically threw things into a suitcase and was ready to leave the moment my husband got out of the shower.
 I will never forget the moment I walked into that room where she was sitting in a baby swing. Here was a tiny baby with tubes and wires everywhere and she was a grey color (here color was so bad). The nurse got her out and handed her to my family and from that moment on....................she was ours!
