    • About Me

      I am a speech/language pathologist working in the schools. Our beautiful baby girl, Jillian, was born on August 9, 2008. We woke up on 1/12/09, just like any other day. Jillian went to the babysitter's house and didn't wake up from her morning nap...SIDS. I know that my husband and I will survive this devastation as we are strong, courageous, and devoted to each other.

    • I’m With You

      From armmom June 9

      Audrey will be gone from us three months tomorrow...it is so hard. I'm sure that her being 10 months today was not an easy day...none really are but those special days are even worse. I am thinking about you.

    • I’m With You

      From armmom June 5

      I am totally with you about seeing babies and pregnant ladies. And, baby boys don't bother me...it is just little girls that remind me so much of my Audrey. It is just so hard. I some days feel that I have a bullseye on my head saying I lost a baby...and other times when people are talking about their families and their children or complaining, "oh just wait until you have kids..." I feel like I really, really need that bullseye for everyone to see. This just stinks.

      Treatments

      Grief Counseling Working / Worked
      My husband and I have been going to counseling together once a week. I feel like it helps us get our feelings out in the open. Also, sometimes, we might say things during the counseling sessions that we might not have said under other circumstances. The counselor helps us to analyze our emotions. I cry every session, but it definitely helps me to feel better.
      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      My husband and I have been working out as a way to work out our anger at the situation.
