Thanks. I managed to obtain a photo of the baby from a spy and now have it as wallpaper for my laptop so that, every time I turn my computer on, I'm greeted by her face. Pure joy. <3
The photo's gorgeous because she is sound asleep and looks the picture of serenity. It's an image I'm conjuring up in my mind now when I'm feeling stressed.
Mid fifties, married thirty years. My husband has sweetly asked me to try to outlive him, because he doesn't want to face life alone.
His odds are pretty good. Both our mothers (still living!) outlived our fathers. And our grandmothers...

BTW, thanks for the supportive comments. I kind of suspected as much would happen when I posted this memoir. :-Dcanadafreeze says,

Wonderful! Love has a way of getting past the obstacles. Glad to hear she's arrived safe and sound :)Sagacious says,
I hope! Who knows. She's less than a month old, so I guess time's on my side.DynamicDbytheC says,
Glad you are getting to see her, one way or another. Your new photo is so appropriate.Sagacious says,
I use that one as my Facebook profile picture now, too. I may only be DNA, but the strands (from what I've seen and heard) are potent ones. :-Djl333 says,
What a wonderful feeling. I'm happy for you.
