On Tuesday Dec. 14 at 8:56 AM I gave birth to Gary Bruce DeBlois III. He was stillborn at 30 weeks 4 days. The cause of death was determined to be a cord injury. The cord was wrapped tightly around his neck four times. He weighed 2lbs12oz, had a full head of hair, mommy's nose, daddy's everything else, and was absolutely perfect. We were able to spend about two hours privately with him in labor and delivery and feel so blessed to have had even that short amount of time with our beautiful son. We know that we have a long road to healing ahead of us, but our love for our son and for each other has kept up pushing through these last four days. Please tell those babies how much you love them today. Every second with them is a blessing!
