Hi all,
I have reached a point where I feel ready to join this board. My daughter was prenatally diagnosed with Trisomy 13. She was a true miracle and I was blessed with 58 wonderful days with her. During our time together, I was able to get to know her little personality - she was never on strong pain medications and was a generally happy child. She loved music, sunshine, and cuddles. Although I wouldn't trade my time with Caroline for the world, it has made losing her that much harder. I physically hurt and I have never been more sad in my life. I know that she is in a better place without pain or feeding tubes, but I miss her so much. My house is so quiet and all I want to do is take care of her but I can't.
Thank you in advance for the support as I journey through this. I will do my best to be there for all of you as well.
Here is a picture of my angel:

**All AL Welcome**
I "loved" your post because your daughter is beautiful and amazing. Thank you for sharing her with us.
I am so sorry for what happened to Caroline and to you. As a fellow Trisomy mommy (T18), I can relate to the devestation you felt, and the pain you continue to feel in an all too quiet house. I hear it gets better, let's hope this is true.
Big hugs to you and thank you for sharing.
