I feel just so terribly sad for them. It's all I've been able to think about all day, I could only imagine how difficult this day has been for them. Sending my love to the whole family...
So heartbreaking. That has to be the most beautiful family portrait I've seen. I'm so glad they got to have that moment. I'm sure they will cherish it forever. I wish we could all be there to hug them.
IUI # 1 on 1/19, Beta 2/1 = BFN, Hysteroscopy on 2/15= 5 polyps removed, and cervix cleared, IUI #2 on 4/15 = BFP, Beta#1 on 4/30 @ 15 dpiui= 279, Beta #2 on 5/9 @24dpiui = 10,154, U/S on 8/5 = TWO GIRLS! Born 10/16 at 28 weeks.
I think the torrential rain right now is a reflection of all the tears shed for this poor little girl. No child should ever have to die. I'm just heartbroken for them.
DH & I both are so moved and affected by this heartwrenching turn of events. Thinking of their little family, hoping for peace and joy in the future as they heal.
Childhood cancer (DH) + chemo + radiation = 0 sperm.
LO #1 - 1 unmedicated/self-monitored IUI w/ donor sperm.
LO #2 - 1 m/c, 2 BFNs, 4th IUI worked (unmedicated/self-monitored with new donor sperm).
Life is beautiful!
So damn unfair, I was hoping and praying for a miracle. They still look so happy in their family photo, I can't imagine writing that post.
Brooke, Joe, Lily and Charlie my heart is with you today. We are all here for you.
Lots of love and hugs.

I can't stop crying. How unfortunate. I was so scared to log on this afternoon. Sending prayers and thoughts their way.
several failed cycles on clomid and lose dose injectibles,
IUI #1 2009 - BFN
IUI #2 2009 - BFP - boy/girl twins born at 31 weeks. IVF #1= BFN; FET #1 = c/p; FET #2 = c/p, FET #3 = negative, FET #4 = positive, baby stillborn at 24 weeks.
i said it before but it is just so heartbreaking. i can't even imagine. i am most of all impressed at joe's strength, continuing to update the blog.
the worst part is that i just keep thinking how physically close they are to me right now--st. peter's hospital is less than 1/2 a mile from my house. i just feel so helpless.
I cried so hard when I read the update. I cannot imagine what Brooke and Joe are going through. Their family portrait was beautiful. Annaleigh was beautiful. She is now with God and at peace. No parent should ever have to go through this Prayers are with their family tonight.
It took over four years to be diagnosed with PCOS. We TTC #1 for 18 months, did 5 rounds of Clomid and finally moved onto IVF...which worked! Throughout our IF journey, we suffered 3 miscarriages. We conceived both DD and DS without treatment.
So unfair. I really don't get it or understand it. I was holding out hope for that miracle. This was just not suppose to happen to them - or anyone for that matter. I am so, so heartbroken for Brooke & Joe.

I've been sad all day. Now I think I am just mad. This should not have happened to them - they don't deserve it, no family deserves it, but they have been through so, so much. It's just so heartbreaking.
love and hugs to Brooke, Joe, Charlie, Lily and of course little Annaleigh.
