my son should have been 4 yrs old today.

[Dawn-Marie]

My first son, Benjamin, was stillborn and he'd be 11 this December. There are days when the loss of his life is as raw as it was the day I held him. The best advice that I have received over the years is to accept that you'll never get over the loss, you'll just get through it (some days better than others). I'm very sorry for your son's death and I know that there are no words to take away the emptiness, but please know that you're not alone.

I am sitting here with tears in my eyes reading this thread. My prayers are with you OP and all of you other posters who have experienced loss too.

Your song is beautiful. I heard it recently on the radio.

We just celebrated my DS16's first year as a cancer survivor in June. I had many nights laying awake and trying to imagine the loss that you experienced. I am sure that I did not even come close to the sadness you feel.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. My son was born without a heartbeat and was given cpr for 14 minutes when he was born emerg. c-section due to severe pre-eclampsia and hellp syndrome. He coughed at 14 minutes... but due to lack of O2 while in utero suffers from cerebral palsy.. Not a birthday goes by that I dont relive the nightmare on the morning he was born... and not a day goes by I dont thank god I have him .. Please know William is an angel watching over other little kids that need help..

So sorry for your loss...I had 2 miscarriages which are still heartbreaking. I have a pair of angel earrings that I wear often and have my 2 angels with me....

Prayers to you and your family and to all those who have suffered losses. Also, thanks for sharing your beautiful song.

Lori-
I am soooo very sorry. I am unable to imagine what you feel. I have 3 and cannot imagine what you go through. I know God gives grace enough to get through, but still....how hard must it be? I will be praying for you when ever I think of you! Blessings and Peace,
In Christ~

My heart goes out to OP and to all who have lost a child. I cannot imagine the pain that you endure daily and especially on these days. I have to believe that little William IS the strength that pulls you through as he watches his mommy and daddy. Happy Birthday William!!! and God Bless you and your family.

I am truly sorry and heartbroken for all of you who have suffered a loss. All of your stories have touched me deeply. I too know what it means to suffer a loss. I had 3 m/c's which really devasted me. Even after I had my two miracle babies it haunted me for years. I had a broken heart! However I am very strong in my faith and within time I gave all my brokeness to the lord. He was able to take away the pain I suffered for years. I have finally come to a place where I can talk about it and not fall to pieces. I still miss them and wonder who they would have looked like and what they would have been like. It was a long road but god healed my heart. I also know that one day I will see my angel babies in heaven. I finally have peace! My prayer for each and everyone of you that you would be able to do the same. God loves each and everyone of you and wants to heal you! God bless you all

I miss you William. My heart is so sad today. We should be having cake and decorating with balloons and streamers, instead there are only streams of tears rolling down my face. I love you baby boy. I miss you Sweet William. I miss you.

Dear Mom, thank you for the song and your loving heart.
I lost my daughter last year after almost 15 years of pain. It was accidental and unexpected. I felt so alone. My husband is her step Dad, dad was never there for her. I ache so hard to see her. When I dream and see her I look at her deeply, I even recall dreams where I knew that I was getting a glimps and would say to ehr to turn to me and let me look longer.

I function, but a part of my heart aches so....
Every birthday, Mothers Day, she was born on Mothers Day and holidays are so different.

Thank you for the moments to feel deeply close to someone else that understands. I am also from the Pocono area.
My hugs and prayers are with you,
Dianne

My first son, Benjamin, was stillborn and he'd be 11 this December. There are days when the loss of his life is as raw as it was the day I held him. The best advice that I have received over the years is to accept that you'll never get over the loss, you'll just get through it (some days better than others). I'm very sorry for your son's death and I know that there are no words to take away the emptiness, but please know that you're not alone.

This was the best advice someone ever gave me too. I got so tired of hearing people say it would pass. It will never pass. I had my first son who passed away at 6 months old and would have been 18 this past February. I then had a healthy baby boy who is almost 16. I then had another son that was stillborn who would have been 14 this past March. I was then told I couldn't have anymore children and then I had a set of beautiful twin girls. They were premature and I almost lost one of them. The pain is unbearable once let alone twice and almost a third time. I know how difficult it's to get through holidays and birthdays. I find myself looking at my other children and wondering what the two boys would be like, what types of things they would enjoy, and of course what they would look like.
