Wise Words


“the thing about losing a child is that you do not just lose them once, but you go on experiencing the loss of what they would have been.

  3. Shannon, I can't thank you enough for all of your blog posts on miscarriage! I just had a D&C yesterday after losing my 7 week old baby. We had an ultrasound at 5 1/2 weeks and saw the heartbeat and we were sooo happy...then week 7, it's gone. I'm so sad and just crying and I'm very angry. So reading your blog has been a HUGE help for me today. It's allowed me to think, cry and understand that's normal for me to feel anger. I absolutely love the poem you posted and I will be putting it into the memory box I will create for my baby. I just wanted you to know how much you have helped me out. I hope that 2011 is a better year for you. It sounds like you are moving on from your marriage and hopefully off to a brand new start of your life. I know that in the future you will be blessed with another marriage and a full family. I know this b/c you have helped others so much and that goodness will come back to you. Take care and thanks again for your 'perfect' words today.
