My Little Angel Kevinangelkevin2807 - 02:12pm Mar 10, 2007 ESTI wasn't supposed to give birth until March 19, 2007. But that won't happen now. I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy on February 8, 2007. My water broke at my doctors office on February 7, 2007. I got sent to the hospital and I was admitted at about 1030 am or so. See now my moms birthday is the 8th so she wanted me to hold out as long as I could. Which worked out great fro her. Cause he wasn't about to get here in a hurry. Labor and Delivery were great. I had him natural cause the doctor that gives you the Epidural too his sweet time and about 10 minutes of putting the Epidural in my back I had my son. The Epidural didn't even kick in yet. I got to see him right when I had him and then the doctors had to take him to the Special Care Nursery. I was brought to my room and after all that I got to go see him. He was so precious. He truly looked like an angel. I got to hold him and feed him for 4 days. But then on Monday February 13, 2007 he wasn't eating and he kept having little spells with his breathing. But they took tests and x-rays. So they thought he had an infection in his intestine. And if how he is acting keeps up we will be sending him to Children's Hospital Boston, that is what the doctors told. He was very lathargic and just not himelf. Well by 6pm I was in an ambulance with my son heading into Boston, to go to the Children's Hospital. When we got there they pretty much started him on every medication you can think of for every infection. Wednesday morning when I went in to go see him it didn't even look like him he had swelled up so much over night, with in hours. I sat by his side praying and telling him he is going to make it and get thru this little bump in the road. Well he didn't make it thru this bump. I lost him on February 15, 2007 exactly a week later. He was born on my moms birthday and passed on my husbands birthday. He is my mircle and my angel, he brought my family back together how it should be. I never thought that I would ever writing a story like this. Cause people never think it's gonna happen to them but when you least expect it you greatest fears come true.

I am sorry for the loss of your son. It is something that no one should go through. I have learned to cherish the moments that I had with my son, celebrate his short life. My son Will also got an infection, a staph infection. He was so swollen by the time he passed passed away, he didn't look my little baby anymore. I know it may be painful for your Mother and your husband on their birthdays, but hold on to his memory. Find ways to honor him and keep his memory alive. That is something that seems to help me. The pain has not really gone away, I think you just learn to live with it a little better. This is a great website to come to for support. Robin

To Kevin's Mom...
Sweetie, I am so very sorry for the loss of your precious angel Kevin. No parent should EVER have to endure the pain of losing a child, my heart goes out to you.
I hope that while you are here, you are able to find the comfort and support that so many others have found. Know that as you grieve the loss of your son, others are greiving with you.
I first came to SHARE in December 2005 after losing my 1st daughter Gabrielle Lynn. Gabby passed away shortly after birth while in my arms, she was born 16 weeks too soon.
The images and the flashes of her memory are forever in my brain, and I truly have grown to cherish them with all my heart.
The days that were spent with your sweet Kevin will be held very dear to you. Find comfort knowing that your son is now in a place where there are no wires and no pain, only peace.
SHARE has become my extended family and has been here for me and my husband to help pick us up when we have felt we were at lowest.
This community is AWESOME and the people here are full of compassion and understanding. Please know that all of us are here for you as you travel this very difficult journey, that you never have to travel alone.
Take our hand and let us walk together.
You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
HUGS & healing thoughts,
Colleen

I am so sorry on your loss of Kevin. Hold his memory close and from what I'm learning, soon the good days will outweight the bad days, but you will always remember him. I hope you find the support you are looking for here. It has been great for me. I had a preemie in 2003 and lost a daughter on 01/17/07 and the people here have helped me tremenduously. My Kate and your Kevin both share the same angelversary dates. I hope you find exactly what I found on Share.
Thinking of you,
Kelly
