On Dec 6, 1995, I found her dead in her crib. After a thorough investigation her death was classified as SIDS. Her twin sister was immediately placed on a monitor, but no alarms occurred. We have subsequently had another baby, Kelly Anne on July 17, 1997 and we have chosen not to monitor her. We pray for an end to SIDS and the suffering others may have to endure. The online address is at my sister's house because we have not activated an account yet.

Sometimes I feel so sad when reading others experiences, other times they are very inspirational. It helps alot, even three years later, to read about those who have suffered through SIDS and survived and yet still morn as I do. I LOVE YOU THEN, NOW AND FOREVER MY BEAUTIFUL NATHAN!!!!!!!!

It is almost a year and a half later and the pain I feel is as acute today as it was the day I had to accept that my little darling was no longer here with me. Maybe its because Christmas is almost here that I feel especially blue. I have a four month old daughter and I feel so blessed to have her; but, sometimes I look at her, and she looks so much like her brother, that it hurts, hurts, hurts! I have so few memories to hold on to because my angel boy was only with me for 2 1/2 months, but the ones I have I cherish. I now collect angels in memory of my little angel, and all the little angels that he now plays with in heaven. I am in no mood to Christmas shop because I keep looking at things that would be appropriate for a 1 1/2 year old boy. I'm trying to muster up something in the way of spirit to give to the rest of the family, but it's so hard. I just want to stay in bed with the cover pulled over my head. But, I won't. I'll remember my son and I'll talk to my son, and I'll picture his little round smiling face, and I'll find a way to go on. That's all any of us can do -- find a way to keep going. All of our little angels are resting in peace because they know how much we loved them and will love them forever.

Comments: I'm just checking in. Many of your comments and experiences help me a great deal as I work through this first of loss of my infant daughter Jessica. She died March 5, 1997 while taking a morning nap at the babysitter. Each day is a struggle for my husband and I. The holidays are really hard as many of you understand all too well. My heart goes out to all of you. I knoww that you probably never wanted to "need" a network or group like this, just as I did not. However, I am so grateful for this spot to come and share other's experiences. I don't feel so alone.

Comments: Our Little Angel, Charlie, was 4 1/2 months old when he died on November 16, 1997 from SIDS. He was our Miracle Baby after six years of infertility treatments and an unsuccessful IVF. He was a great human being, even though his life on Earth was short. We miss him dearly!

Comments: For Aubrey Elaine born on August 22,1997 in heaven on October 14,1997 My beautiful child named Aubrey Elaine died from sids. When I was 4 months pregnant I began to bleed very badly. When I went to the hospital the doctor believed that I had already lost my baby. He ordered a sonogram and the baby was fine. The bleeding was a subchorionic bleed. I was ordered to bed rest. Then on Aug. 22 I went into labor 7 weeks early. They tried to stop it but it did not work. Aubrey came that afternoon. She was doing well and all we were waiting on was her to eat form a bottle and put on weight. Four days latter she developed an infection and was transfored to another hospital. I remember thinking that nothing could be worse than to see 4 people carting your child off in an ambulance. When she was 3 weeks and 3 days old she was able to come home. That was one of the happiest days of my life. I thought that all of our problems were over. On Tues. Oct. 14 we awoke to our chlid's lifeless body. I began cpr and called 911. The ambulance came and they worked on her for about 15 minutes in front of our house as we delt with our neighbors asking us what was going on. Then for the second and last time Aubrey was taken off by ambulane with 5 people working on her to the hospital. We followed in our car. When we got there we were put in a room to sit and wait. I will never forget that doctor coming in and telling that there was absolutly nothing the paramedics could of done. Aubrey was going to be the baby of the family with an older brother and sister. She was my little angel on earth now she is my little angel in heaven. The only comfort I get is that she is with my mother,my 2 brothers, and a sibling that I miscarried a couple of years before. I will always love and miss her dearly but one day I will be with her again.
