Re: Marietta's update....sad news (Long)

[Guest guest]

Dear Marietta and Randy,

I, too wanted to extend my deepest

sympathy for your loss. Baby Bowie will never be forgotten and has been loved so deeply and no one

can take away the fact that you are the parents of a beautiful daughter who is

now with God. I am grateful that the hospital was so compassionate, and

had the resources to provide you with memories. That is so very important.

I can also empathize with what you must be feeling as I had a miscarriage on December 16, 2002 at 16 weeks after my

membranes ruptured. It was critical to me to be able to deliver my son so

that I could see and touch his delicate body. Although he was too small

for footprints, they gave me a memory box with a journal and I have put his

sonogram photos in there. We had him cremated and someday he will be

buried in a lot with my husband and I. I may also get a pendant to keep

some of his cremains with me forever. I am the mother of two – a daughter

who will turn 3 on Thursday and a son, on, who is with God. You are

not alone, Marietta. You will get through this and be stronger for it.

Allow yourself to cry and mourn and remember your precious angel.

Warmly,

Kim
