| Oh man. We lost our first baby in a similar manner, on her due date. Life will look brighter as time passes, it was hard to see that at the time, though.
My heart goes out to you and your wife. Tears, too. |

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | Anyone who has lost a child feels your pain more than you can know. Sue and I send condolences. A serious suggestion, get some counseling for your grief even if you think you have things handled, and look to support groups your doctor or pastor can recommend. |

| Fisher,
I know all too well what you're going through. Though my wife and I haven't lost any of our children in this manner....my sister lost her first two in this very same way. I'm very close with my sister, and let me tell you...this had a major affect on the family overall. It devistated our parents.
My sister's first two tries at giving birth, both of her children were carried deep into the third tri-mester and both resulted in still-born children. Our state of Indiana, by law, mandates a birth and death certificate, naming of the child and a burial. That was really, really, really hard for my sister, my brother-in-law and our entire family. The wounds are still fresh...but healing with each and every day.
After the two still-borns, my sis and bro-in-law adopted the most precious baby girl. Their adopted daughter came to them on Easter Sunday 2 years ago, they named her Hope. An amazing little girl that brought amazing happiness to them as well as our entire family.
Through the years, with seeing what my sister had gone through, what some friends of our had gone through with misscarriages early on in the stage of the game, I learned that misscarriages and still-borns are not all that uncommon. This does not deminish the fact of the lost. Not by any means. It's a hard thing to face and understand. The miracle of life is an amazing thing in itself. That's why life in general is so precious and each person should be thankful they're here and to live each day to their fullest and as if it's their last. There are no guarantees in life.
My sister and bro-in-law have just announced last weekend that they're going to give this a third try and they're now pregnant with their third, natually conceived child. We're all hoping for the best for them that they have a healthy baby this time through.
My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your wife as well.
Moral of the story: Don't give up. Once you and your wife both feel you're healed, the best you can, try again. As cliched as it is...everything happens for a reason, though we may never know truely what that reason is or was. The Big Guy upstairs always has a plan for each of us...
Take one day at time and remember to be there for your wife and love her and console her.
Take care. God bless.

I believe God calls some home early. I was told that they are anchors in heaven waiting for us. |
