About Me:
I'm 17, spiritual and strong minded, I believe in god and will do anything for children. I am training to work in a special education school or even a day care as long as I work with and look after children.
About my Loss:
On the 18 of the 6th 2012, my girlfriend and I lost a sweet little boy after a miscarriage. We both took it hard and often looked for something to blame, usually we would blame ourselves or each other until we started to believe in god again. The only people we could talk about it to was each other due to the fear of judgement from our friends and resentment or being disowned by family. So we bottled it up, not venting the grief in an appropriate manor. We may be young, so people expect us to get over it. But it just isn't that easy, its been 8 months or so and I still find it hard. It just seems so unfair that Daniels little eyes couldn't meet ours...

    Thank you. I am also sorry to hear of your loss. I've suffered a miscarriage before, years ago, but circumstances then effected how I felt about the loss. I can tell you that while your pain may never go away, you will learn to better cope with it. I'm so sorry that you're going through this pain. I'm a mother of two now and I can't imagine the pain I would feel if something were to ever happen to them. If you ever need to talk, please feel free to message me. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your girlfriend.  *hugs*

    Dear Brandon,

    I am so sorry to hear about you great loss.

    My daughter suffered through 6 miscarriages and each one was VERY painful.

    Here is a link to an interesting article that includes a discussion on the topic of miscarriages. Please read the whole article, I think it will give you much to think about.
