Preeclampsia

I am so sorry for your loss. I also lost my son Max due to preterm labor at 23 and half weeks and five days in the NICU. I know the pain is so bad...but the rawness of it will get better. Know that you are not alone. And neither is Jake. Writing on here has helped me a lot. You will meet many other women who have been there too. And for me that was the best support. Hold on tight... and know you're not alone.

I posted on your blog, I'm so sorry you lost your little boy. Allison129 is so right, talking with other moms on here totally helped me understand how I felt was normal, it's so hard in the beginning. Just try your best to write out your emotions, it really does help, just to get out how you are feeling. Thinking of you and your family.

Welcome to Share! I'm so sorry to hear of Jake's passing. I too have lost a child and know the heartache that comes with it. There is no one thing that helped me to get through my loss, but time was the biggest thing. I also felt the need to talk about my daughter a lot. I still do...she will always be my child and I don't want to leave out my thoughts of her. Journaling also helped and later I found Share which has been more than helpful!! I found that I was not alone and that the people here weren't "judging me" or feeling sorry for me, but they truly understood how I felt.

Thinking of you!

Welcome to Share, Jamie. I am so sorry for the loss of your sweet boy, Jake. I cannot fathom the pain and hurt that you are feeling, but I do know that there are many moms and dads on Share that have gone through this same devastating loss. I am certain that you will find comfort knowing you will not be alone on this journey. Please take the time you need to grieve and heal. I will be thinking of you.

Love, Kelly

Hello and welcome to Share. I am so sorry for the loss of your sweet little boy Jake. No parent should have to face the journey that so many of us are walking. I am sorry that you now are a part of the "club" with the high price admission, but I am happy that you found your way here.

I have found blogging to be a very useful tool. I tried group therapy, one on one therapy, and neither one did it for me. However, writing my inner most feeling, writing about all my pain, fear, anger, and confusion has been very theraputic. For me it something very healing about letting the entire world read about my journey. The best thing is you will never need to justify, apologize, or defend your feelings.

Please take it one day at a time, breath through the moments and know that baby steps are okay!

Take care,
Yolonda

Hello and welcome to Share. I am so sorry for the loss of your sweet little boy Jake. No parent should have to face the journey that so many of us are walking. I am sorry that you now are a part of the "club" with the high price admission, but I am happy that you found your way here. I too lost my son, but my son had what they call Open skull bith, and he only lived for 4 days
and for me I'm just staring to get better, and like Yolonda said, blogging is great, b/c I'm able to get my feeling out and cry while doing it, but I feel better once I'm done. So I haope that you able to have peace here, I know that I have and I have made some wonderful friends as well.

Aww just want to say i know and understand what youre going through...im finding it hard to cope..lost my firstborn boy ashley also due to pre eclampsia on jan 2oth 2oo9..here if u want to talk..

It has been a while since i've been on here. Thankyou so much for everyones words. Its been hard, and i miss him everyday..but My husband and I are very strong and help eachother. We were married in September of 07', two weeks before our wedding My husband lost his dad from a drunk driver. Then when we lost Jake to preeclampsia we just lost it. It just feels like we keep getting pushed down, the moment we start to stand up. All my love and prayers goes out to everyone that has gone threw such horrible circumstances. We need to find a cure!

Bless u jamie,i know that feeling too well...something good happens then something bad comes and destroys it all...life feels too hard all the time..the people on here all great tho,because they understand...having somewhere like this where i can just share experiences and talk helps when feel not coping...im here if u want to talk,would like to try help u...and yes wish could find a cure!wish could bring our angels back too... Hugs..chantellex
