Thanks Ladies! I made it through the week. We took Friday off and tried to keep ourselves busy with things so I could try to avoid thinking about losing Cooper. Although my 3 year old make that difficult to do because he was determined that we had to get a birthday cake, balloons and a present for Cooper and talked about it all Saturday and Sunday. I felt like a broken record by the end of the weekend explaining the whole heaven concept to Davis. I ended up making a birthday cake and allowing Davis to blow out the candle for Cooper which felt nice so I think we might make annual thing so we can remember Cooper and remind Davis that he does have a little brother in heaven.

the anniversary of my daughter's birth is coming up soon too. sometimes it seems like just days ago, not a whole year doesn't it? I'll be thinking of you and Cooper this week.

Kristy, sometimes it would be nice to have a fast-forward button. Reliving those moments are really, really hard. I am sorry for the tough days that you are having right now. You're in my thoughts. Wishing you peace and healing. (((HUGS)))

I am so ready for this week to be over with. A year ago today I woke up and realized there was blood. I was hospitalized for a small tear in my placenta. It was a couple of days into the hospital stay after steroids stopped masking liver and kidney functions that the doctors realized that I had PE. My BPs were consistantly in the normal stage. I ended up delivering Cooper on the 20th at 24 weeks, 2 days. This morning I was so terrifed to get up for fear of seeing blood again. I wish I could just zone out this week and quit reliving every moment from a year ago. I hope every May is not going to be this hard.
