Cysts on my baby's brain

Ok well. i got a voice mail today telling me to call in the office, they have some test results... which i knew right away wasn't good cause they don't call when everything is normal.
well on Monday i went and got my u/s and i was super excited, i found out it was a baby girl, and I've been nothing but thrilled but when i called the office back.. my heart got crushed......

they went over my ultra sound and ... they told me my baby girl has 2 choroid plexus cysts and they sent my info into MaGee's womens hospital and i will have to go in for a level 2 ultrasound and more talk with the doctors at the genetics department.. (MaGee will be calling tomorrow)
i looked it up on my own and sometimes they go away before, sometimes they don't, they can be a sign of Trisomy 18 - also known as ..edward's syndrome and the baby can be a stillbirth.....

i'm so scared
i'm so so so scared.

has anyone else's babies had this?...
did it go away......
please, positives or negatives... please tell me your story..



and everyone else, i'm asking to please pray for my baby. i want the best for her and i just want her to be okay...
