I'm not quite sure how tomorrow will go... so I don't know if I'll be around.
A year ago, I became an Aunt for the first time.
A year ago, my husband became an Uncle.
A year ago, my in law's became grandparents for a second time.
A year ago, a beautiful baby was born.
But-
A year ago, was one of the worst day's of my life.
A year ago, Dr. V took my baby.
A year ago, even though I know he was gone before, he was really gone.
A year ago, I cried on the way to the hospital for my D and C as my husband got a text message that his sister had just given birth.
A year ago, I didn't give a damn that she had a baby, I actually told my mother in law to stop sending me updates, because I really didn't care.
A year ago, I was really heartless to the nurses who tried to be so kind to me.
A year ago, I was hopeless, and angry, and sad.
A year ago, my husband wrote me a letter while I was in surgery, and it still makes me cry to this day.
He was the only one in the waiting room, I remember walking back to the pre-op area where they could get me ready. I looked back right before the door closed, and he looked so defeated.
A year ago, we lost our little Sea Monkey.
This is the last picture I have of him. His little heart was beating so strong. I still keep it on my Blackberry, I just don't have the heart to delete it. The original is in our 'baby box' up in the closet...
(((hugs)))
ReplyDeleteIt's been a rough year. You are very positive and upbeat and so this post of reflection and sadness touches me twice as deep. Thinking of you today.
{more hugs}
ReplyDelete(((HUGS))) You'll be in my thoughts today. I can relate to what you said on the day of you D&C that your sea monkey was "really gone". I felt the same way when I had mine. I know how painful this is too. My DH became an uncle on the same day that I had my D&E for my 3rd loss.
ReplyDeleteMiscarriage is a just horrific experience. Worst thing that has ever happened to me. Repeatedly.
ReplyDeleteI hope that your NEAR future has a healthy pregnancy that results in a take home baby!
I'm so sorry. Sending you lots of **hugs**
ReplyDeleteOh honey, I'm so sorry. Nothing hurts worse than losing your child. I wish I could give you the biggest hug in the world. I pray that you have a sweet baby in your arms, soon!
ReplyDeleteMy heart just breaks for you. I can't imagine how you must have been feeling on that day! It sounds like you have a loving, supportive DH -- what would we do without them?
ReplyDeleteThinking of you! Hugs!
