A heartfelt thank you

[Darci]

I wanted to tell everyone that has either responded to my story or shared their stories thank you. Two little words that could never convey the true depth of the gratefulness I feel for you all. I know I could never have gone through this without such wonderful support.

I am Christian; but I don't believe that God did this. I believe that when he created the world certain rules had to be made to make everything work. Unfortunatly that ment that sometimes babies like my Cassie go to heaven before we think they should. However I also believe that God gave me the fantastic support I've received from friends, family, and you guys to make sure I would make it through this.

So, for what it's worth, thank you. And I hope I will be able to repay this debt by supporting another mom through.

Hello again Darci,
I too feel thankful to all who have been there for me to listen and support...
I was thinking about what you wrote. I am a Christian, and that has really helped me to see the beauty in Stella's death. Just like all of us, I know God knew exactly how many her days would be and that he was in control all the time. Her death is hard for us, but how great for her to be born into heaven before her birth on earth! and, I've been able to experience such rich blessing and healing in my life because of her death. I better understand birth and death and how inter-related they are and feel such empathy for other women and their losses. Actually, I would love to see women embrace all of what God has to give them in birth, whether that is in the birth of a live baby or one alive in heaven.

Darci and Sarah,

Your amazing women. I feel so blessed to have been here during this time. As you heal, please know I heal with you. I thank you deeply for sharing.

The comming months are going to be filled with so many emotions. I know for me, somhow I found an anger that was very frightening to me. But, I worked through it and now understand that I needed to feel it and understand it.

Whatever you're feeling, just allow it to happen. It's the natural greif process. Explore your feelings and you'll come to a deeper understanding of yourself.

Continue being gentle with yourselves and know that I'm thining of you and your precious children both living and spirit.
