Today Sucks (sensetive)

This morning a baby died in our NICU. The mom was staying here at the Ronald McDonald House. I woke up this morning to her screaming. Her baby was 7 weeks old and doing really well. I am a mess. I don't think I will ever understand why things happen the way they do.

  • the idea makes my heart stop. thoughts and prayers to you and the family.
  • I can't even imagine the pain that family is going through. Also, it is super scary that you found out about it.  I loved the fact that in the nicu I was sheltered from all of that type of stuff.  Just keep focusing on how good little Jack is doing and know that he will be coming home with you soon.  Hugs!

  • I'm late to reply but my T&P's go not only to that family but to you as well.  I know that shakes all of us to the core. 

    I'm so sorry you had to witness such an unfair part of life.  Huge hugs Kate

  • This way my greatest fear in the NICU.  Not just for our baby but those around us.  I cannot imagine...

  • I'm late in responding but T & P's to them and their family.  I pray for all the babies in our NICU and will add them to my list.
  • I understand how you feel completely.  Our first week at Ron's house 3 babies became angels.  3 more grew wings before we left 75 days later and unfortunately being part of the Heart Family community we still hear of more losses.  I, too, will never understand why some have to go through so much and still not go home with their families.
