Soo finally got up the courage to talk to DH about the cremains. I said.. I did something.. I'm not sure you'll be ok with it.. but I need to tell you. I told him and he said why on earth would you think I would be mad that you want her cremains and have started the process? I said well you didn't want them before and I don't want to disrespect your greiving process either. But he was totally fine with him. I feel SO much better!!
Called the office of anatomical donations yesterday too.. they are calling me next week when the cremains are available for pick up. Yikes! I'm so scared. I know I'm going to totally lose it. My cousin is going to come with me. I work with her and she lost her baby 20 years ago at 32 weeks and actually donated to the same doctor that we did for research. I'm so glad! I did not want to do this alone.
Re: Cremains continued..
I am so glad it went well! Sounds like you have a very understanding DH.
I hope the day you pick up the remains isn't as tough as you anticipate. I can remember doing it- and it was a day I will never forget. It was great to bring my daughter home with us - but of course not the way we wanted.
