Over the years, through the hard work and dedication of Aseana ScanExperts and Fetal Experts, many conditions have been diagnosed in babies. Some are treatable and lives are saved. Some are operable and many lives are saved. Some are recognized and the quality of lives of the babies are optimized, yet others are too complicated and only planning and preparation can be advised, along with other more complex care pathways.
Sana vitae – v2
You tiny beings
Afloat in ethereal serenity
Wakeful in slumber
Perfect but for some
The tether a lifeline
The eternal bind of mother
Celestial
We shone unto you
A serenade o sound
Unheard but seen
Pitch perfect
Inch perfect but for some
An insight into life, into you
We aspired to affect a difference
Dared to take a stance
The call of duty
Saved we have failed we have
The commune of exult and sorrow
For to err is only us
We stand wiser
As you blessed us in return
With insight into humility
For so few bear witness
So few fortunate to delve into the Beauty and Tragedy
Of Life.
We bow in gratitude
Tiny little beings
Blessed are we who have shone unto you
