Comments: I live in Sarasota Florida and I just recently had a baby boy ( almost 3 weeks ago) and am very eager to read everything and anything that has to do with the well being of my child. It is comforting to know that there is a network of people who are willing to give information and support about SIDS. I was not aware of the alarming amount of deaths every year - or day for that matter.

I know the risk factors and feel that I could have prevented it. The medical part of me tells me no but the medical/dad part hurts so much. The dad part is just stunned like all parents.

He has been horribly abuses by TDCJ and inmates and doctors because of his conviction, illnesses, mild manner, and young mind.

My husband and I are approaching what would of been her 1st birthday (May 6). I would like some advice on HOW to get through the day!! I get by each day okay but I think her birthday is going to be tough. Ashley was an identical twin. I lost the 1st one, Catherine Lynne, when I was 6 1/2 months pregnant. They were our first children. I would appreciate any advice you can give. Also, if anyone out there needs to talk, I'm here. My e-mail address is: NRUBIRA@VNET.IBM.COM.

Comments: My husband and I have a five month old little boy. His name is Gregory. We live in Jackson, Ohio. Two nights ago I put him down to sleep on his back. While he was taking his nap I went to the kitchen to do some dishes real quick. He was right around the corner in the living room. Not five minutes later I went in to check on him. His lips were blue and he was limp! I picked him up and sat him upright on my lap and rubbed his back and face. He finally took the deepest gasp of air into his little lungs and started to cry. I tought for sure that we had lost him to SIDS. We took him to the emergency room and he was admitted. They ran some tests and put him on a monitor. He was diagnosed with a form of sleep apnea. We thank God that we found him in time. It could have been to late.

Comments: I lost my first child when I was 22 weeks pregnant, in 1993. I have found support on the web, and was looking into the SIDS sites for just a little more support - it seems I have seen and read all the miscarrage and stillbirth sites. I have been touched by these stories, and have felt that you all understand my suffering, having lost babies yourselves. However, at one site I read someone who lost a child to SIDS saying that my child was not a child who died because he was not born first. She equated my loss to the loss of a pet. I would just like to say that I do understand the pain you all suffer. Mine is different, but not less. While you have lost babies you had a chance to see and hold while they were alive, I never had that chance. You grieve memories and your child. I grieve hope and my child. God Bless you all, until we can hold our little ones forever.

Through thise site I found the clipping from the Washington Post-"Most health-care professionals believe that today's parents can reduce the risk of SIDS in their own babies." During all my prenatal visits and at the hospital, when I had her, noone ever gave any info. on SIDS. And my question is WHY? SIDS is just as real as AIDS, Cancer,ect...., there needs to be more done about it and I am willing to help in anyway. I want to thank Jesus for taking good care of our baby girl. Mommy and daddy will see you "One Sweet Day" baby girl, we LOVE and MISS you dearly!

Comments: I live in Twentynine Palms, Ca. I have recently had a miscarrige. In the beginning I was obsessed with my lost pregnancy and the possibility of becoming pregnant again. I guess I still do feel that way. It was nice to find that other people had felt or are feeling the same way I am. Funny enough, I am a health care provider who deals with these issues often. I have been having a difficult time listening to my rational mind. I have a wonderful life and in the midst of this ordeal began to lose sight of this fact. I hope with time these feelings of urgency will lessen and I will be able to take things as they come. You never realize how important somethin is until it's gone.

Comments: N.Y.-In loving memory of Brian Lee Truax (my little cousin) His Mom writes: I just had the 1st set of twins in my family, they were born on Dec. 31, 1996. Brian at 4 lbs 10 oz and Brandon at 5 lbs. 10 oz. They had some feedig problems at first, but with round the clock feedings they learned to eat well. They were beautiful healty babies thriving with growth and development. They went for their 2 month checkup on 3/5/97 and made out great. They started their 1st set of immunizations. Brian 8lbs 11oz, Brandon 9lbs 5oz. All they did was smile and sleep. They were the Best. On Friday morning 5:00 am I awoke to Brian gray in color and not breathing...It was the worst day of our lives... Brian died in his sleep. Brandon was fine, Thank God. I'll never understand how a perfectly healthy baby can die in his sleep and no one can give answers.. If it takes me the rest of my life, I will find out. In memory of my Beautiful little perfect Angel BRIAN LEE TRUAX 12/31/96 - 03/07/97.

All that anyone can tell us is that it was "SIDS," it happened at daycare. She was placed to sleep on her stomach ( I had never let her sleep that way before) and never woke up. My husband and I are totally devastated, Jaycie was our first child and we are still asking "why?"

I know that this is not a rational fear, but she's my first and only child. I check on her 3 times a night to make sure that she's breathing. Her father visits her every week and he is a smoker, although he doesn't smoke in her prescence. Can the smell of smoke alone cause a problem?

This is by far the hardest loss that I have ever had to deal with and my sympathies to all out there that have "been there" are heartfelt. Thank you for all the information available to those who have suffered this, it has helped to ease the heart. I pray that someday a prevention for this will be available.

I lost my daughter Dyllan to Sids on June 20 1995 and I don't think I will ever stop looking for answers. Especially since I am trying to have another child, other than my three year old. The thought of knowing as little as I did about Sids as I did whene this child comes scares the life out of me . So it's nice to know if I have any questions I can most likely get the answers here.
