Settling in to our loss

Rate this Entry
We lost our precious baby girl just 2 1/2 weeks ago on October 25th. It was the saddest day I have ever experienced. She was absolutely beautiful and perfect on the outside. I tell myself that is why God took her after only 7 hours with us. While our doctors told us this was a possibility due to her CDH, we never imagined it would or could happen in the year 2012 as we had so much expertise and technology on our side. At birth it was discovered she virutally had no lung tissue on her left side and her right was severely underdevelped. In addition, she had a hole between the 2 bottom chambers of her heart and also an underdeveloped aorta. I think about her every second of every day and am trying to find a way to heal but honor my baby in all I do. My heart simply aches...........

    My heart just breaks for you and your family. Having lost our precious grandson June 25, 2011. We were able to love him for 33 days, he never came home. Liam's right-sided CDH was undiagnosed. I still cannot wrap my head around CDH, the depth and deadliness of the disease. Our family misses Liam more with each passing day. While I cannot fathom how you feel, I do know how I feel as a grandparent to watch your children go through such gut-wrenching pain and loss. A loss no parent should ever have to experience.

    May God surround you all with his loving arms providing peace, comfort and solace. Please know you are not alone. CHERUBS is a wonderful group of support people who know and care.

    God Bless You & Your Family,
