SHARE UNION

Aug 16, 2010 05:17am (EST)

Can't wait for Share Union! This will be my 3rd year and i can't tell you haw much I look forward to it every year! When I go to share union I feel free...free to cry...scream..express the way I feel without judgement. Thank you for making this happen. Last year I think was the best year for me Not only did a friend and I become so much closer but I really was able to talk to the other Angel Mommies. Here I am not alone. I am so looking forward to seeing everyone and laughing together until my sides hurt...and last year they hurt! I really am very excited and blessed to have you all in my life thank you!

MY ANGEL KAITLYN

Aug 07, 2010 04:59am (EST)

Well tomorrow will be 4 years in Heaven! And i still shut down, locking everyone around me out that day! Charlie and I have a nice day planed withthe kids breakfast, church, park, picnic, visit Kaitlyn and plant her flowers, dinner and just hang out with James & Lauren. Then of course the MIL calls and saySince you will be in Brooklyn tomorrow, I have things to do in the morning and afternoon but I will make us dinner> Well of course if thats ok with you. I was like well we have plans just the four of us...Her reply well thank about it.

She never comes over to see the kids and only has been here this summer because we needed her to babysit (don't get me started about that). But becasue Sunday has a meaning to it she wants to be involved. So I say this to Charlie and he says well I am sure she is upset too. I almost took off his head. She is hurting are you kidding me.............

Then to top off the evening I had my neice here all day and my mother calls up after she left and says, so having hailey all day must have been hard for you...did you sit back today and think about wow this is what it would be like if Kaitlyn were here? I just replied wow mom it took you 4 years to think of that I thought about that the day Hailey was born and I held her in my arms thanks for pointing that out to me I have to go now.

So to my mother and MIL you get teh STUPID AWARD today!

Thank God Share is backup and running!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY IN HEAVEN

Jul 29, 2010 02:41pm (EST)

We sent balloons to Kaitlyn on their Birthday! THe kids had so many questions:
James "will Kaitlyn see them?"
Lauren" will she have cake?"
They both want to know if they will see her one day and they always have to make sure they know she is their sister.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABIES

Jul 25, 2010 07:39pm (EST)

July 19 came and went! They are now 4 years old! I can't! We have a great karate party and on their real Birthday we had fun coloring gift bags to bring to the NICU. We put in lots of SHare info and preemie hats. We went up to visit the Doctors and Nurses that were there when they were born and they loved to see them and we even spoke with a mom who just had her baby 3 days ago and she asked me so many questions about the kids...later that night a nurse sent me a message on facebook that after talking to me that mom went over to her baby and told her about the two little kids she had met that were much smaller than her when they were born and now they are 4 and look great.. so lets go baby you keep fighting! That is why we go and visit on their birthday and hang up their pictures. Will someone tell my MIL that! lol

Anyway missing my Angel on this day, we sent her balloons to heaven and her daddy and I spent some alone time with her. Aug 8 is fast approching and I have knot in my stomach.

We are growing, we are still fighting, and we are loving life! Happy Birthday my three little Babies!

THAT TIME OF YEAR!

Jul 01, 2010 07:21am (EST)

Ok it is July and now I start the panic....not sure if that is the right word. I start to feel funy leading up to the kids Birthday every year...we celebrate ad light a candle for kaitlyn and then I cry my eyes out that night. It will be 4 years and still the pain is there I try to be strong and I tell others about how it becomes easier to manage the pain but does it????? I am not so sure when July rolls around. Forget August! I will be a mess.

I have been struggling alot about having another baby it was not easy for us (yes the treatments worked right away but everything after that was bad). After the treatment we had many noghts to the ER I was sick all the time bedrest from day 1 hospital for 3 weeks then 14 weeks early delivery. I want more kids Charlie does too but not at that cost. He said it would not be fair to James & lauren to watch me go throughthat and what if we are not so luckly next time.....

I don;t know is it me just trying to fill the void in my heart? The one thing in life I always wanted was a big family the one thing I feared in life was a loss of a child... I had them a big family and then the loss...I feel robbed of everything I always dreamed of. How do you move on...get over it...face facts that you are not having any more babies????

This is just me and my July issues thank you for listening and always being here for me with no judgements. Love you share family!

HAPPY 5 YEARS

Jun 25, 2010 05:09am (EST)

Well yesterday I have been married for 5 years...we have dated on and off since high school. (a little history for ya)
After all that we have went through with having triplets born 14 weeks early and the loss of a baby we have stayed together. We have our fightes both big and small but after all that is said and done we are still together and missing our Angel. I still remembe after kaitlyn's mass a fireman came over to Charlie and said after seing the two of us up there arm in arm and talking about our daughter he was moved and was going to ask his girlfriend of 15 years to finally marry him. At the time I thought it was strange for him to say this at our babies funeral but then I realized what moved him....we were not suposed to have surrvived after that kind of loss but we became stronger. I thank God everyday that we have each other. DON'T GET ME WRONG that first year was very hard.....the blame the guilt the shame....but after talking to professionals and we talked alot we understood eachothers pain and started to realize how to help eachother with the different type of pain we felt.

So happy 5th Anniversary my love!

HAPPY TIMES

Jun 15, 2010 08:00am (EST)

My babies are going to be 4 next month!!!!! They have come such a long way. They have overcome so many things since being born 14 weeks early. I owe alot to my SUPER early intervention team, with out them James would be still crawling on his heard amd Lauren would never put her arms together. I have to celebrate all that they have accomplished over these past 4 years. And be greatful for all those who hae help them along the way.

This site and all of you have been there for me and I can't thank you enough.

Everyday we pray for Kyle and his family. My kids only have seen him in pictures but becasue we pray for him they hope to meet him one day!

SURVIVING TRIPLETS

May 23, 2010 05:21am (EST)

OK so up until now I have choosen who I told my kids were triplets to. When people ask me Oh they are twins I just said YES. But I always felt bad. So now I have been saying Well they are surviving triplets. After they think about it for a minute some ask well where is the other child? Are you kidding me! So then I have to say well I did say surviving which means that one passed away. They always say sorry and then say WELL AT LEAST YOU HAVE YOUR BOY AND GIRL!

I want to kill them! I sometimes say yeah right but I should have two girls ad a boy have an nice day! And walk away ready to cry! Why is this so hard! I should not have to hide that I had a baby and she died. But people need some classes on how not to be so stupid!

I met a woman who had just lost her baby girl and she is tring to get people to talk about loss! We should not have to hide our loss but we should feel free to express how we are feeling. I have just been thinking about this lately.

I am so glad I have all of you and I can say anything and know that no one here will say anything stupid to me. Thank you share!
