I see from your profile that you're Catholic; I am too, and when I lost a little one my only consolation was imagining him or her being welcomed into Heaven with open arms and made a saint that would pray for me and our family. I'm very sorry, I really am.

That brought tears to my eyes, so sweet.

Thank you, what a lovely thought. I am so angry right now, angry with God, I feel like yelling at Him:"Why? WHY? What did I ever do to you?!" and I know that is pointless. I am trying to keep your words in mind, and I'm trying to let go of my baby.

Thank you, all of you, for your words of comfort. I can't seem to stop crying, and wondering what I did wrong, what I did to hurt my baby. What happened seems so unnecessary, cruel and pointless. My mind keeps telling me it will get easier, but my heart is hurting so badly that it seems to drown out everything else.
I am so, so sorry for all of you that have gone through this. You will forever be in my prayers.

oh Iris, I totally understand the anger at God. I don't want to say the simpering line of "everything happens for a reason" because I know how much that hurts, but I do want you to know that you can come out of this with a sense of purpose and healing. As tragic and traumatic as my loss was, I did learn things about myself and the world that I never could have learned otherwise. I have found that I learned about myself as a person, woman, and mother thru my pain and have found ways to minister to others because of this experience. I would have loved to have never gone thru it, but I wouldn't be quite the same and I appreciate the strength that I found through my experiences. I hope that someday you will be able to say something similar but I know that it can take a long time and that life is very dark now. Just hang in there, treat yourself gently and patiently, and know that there is a light ahead, even if you can't see a glimmer yet.
