Stories of Lost Children
AJ Our Sweet Angel

All happened so fast.... When finding out we were expecting baby number three, excitement, fear, joy overcame us. But for me was fear all together. My first son was born in 1994. He came at 34 weeks and was born very ill. Everyday is a milstone for him and for us. Baby number two came in 1999 and she was healthy as a button. Now here comes number three. I was so terrified that everything was going to be ok. Sure enough it was, until Febuary 28, 2002. Went into a routine appointment. Was sent for a ultrasound and at first glance I noticed that something was not right. The technician did not have the heart to tell me there was no heartbeat. I was only 19 weeks. But I think the hardest is the wait. I delivered my baby on March 1, 2002 at 3:01 a.m. I never even put thought into what a baby would look like. But he was the most beautiful baby you could ever see. We put our baby to rest on March 4, 2002. Can't wait to see you again AJ. In Loving Memory Of our Son
