I've had a little cry



Some days you just have to stand still and wonder what might have been, in 1988 we lost a beautifull baby girl called Charlotte she was 6 weeeks old, her twin sister is now 21, 2 years later we lost a son Noel he died at birth and today would have been his 20th Birthday, I often wonder what they would have been like.

Amidst all this and against all the odds another son was born, we cherish every day with our children and love them to bits but today is for Noel Happy Birthday my darling.

Thank You for letting me share this with you all

Your post made me shed a tear too...I am so sorry for your loss, how do you cope with losing not one child but two? I remember when I had my son 16 years ago my friend lost a baby quite late on in her pregnancy...I remember breaking down with her on the phone. It must be so hard I cannot begin to imagine. My thoughts and love are with you and your family.
