" Please don't give up the fight. I know how hard it is and I am here if you ever need a friend who understands. Have you considered talking to a professional? I just send you a friend request... If you can only sleep when your daughter is close then bring her into your bed to be next to you.. Don't go anywhere I am going to read your profile quick... "

" we've all ben there...felt the same way, but your other baby needs you just as much.....think of your daughter not only losing her brother, but her mother as well. this site will be here for you as much as we can, but at some point you'll have to make the decision to learn to deal with the pain that we all feel. if anyone is going to understand what you're going through, its all the parents here.Just try to communicate with us, it will help....send me a message so we know you're ok....

" Thank you both your words ment alot to me, and I am so sorry about your loss, I wish you didnt have to feel what I do, I would not wish it on any one. and yes I am ok it is just so hard but it helps knowing that there is others out their that understands how I feel. Wiley's B-Day is on the 4 wich is next week he would be 1years old.I just pray for God will get us all though this. The death of a child is the hardest thing any one can go through, if we can get through this we can get through any thing that life sends our way. I think God brought us all here together so we could help each other through these hard time. last night was a bad night for me and JaxonMom I truly want to thank you for your help last night. "

" I am sooooo sorry. I can say, as well as all the parents on here, that I know how you feel. Maybe to different degrees, but I am sure we all felt that way at some point. As I stated in another reply that I did, a big part of me still wants to die. I feel very torn. Part of me wants to go and be with Alia, but the other part of me knows my kids need me here, more than Alia does (i hate admitting that but my faith tells me she is fine with God).
Please just remember that your other children need you here. Earth is way too harsh for your other children to have to grow up without their mother. One day you will be with your baby again, one day we all will. But now is not the time. Your other children need their mother too! Take care! I hope you are feeling a little better. "
