Stories of Lost Children
Baby Makenna
by Kindra Fiorini, Cincinnati, OH, USA
This has been a very hard year for me. On March 22nd 2009, I lost my mother Darlene to throat cancer. At the time I was almost 4 months pregnant with my 3rd daughter. It was the hardest thing to ever go through. I knew I had to keep myself from falling apart because my innocent little baby depended on me. I didn't know how to deal with the fact that my mom would never see or feel or kiss my daughter. In honor of my mom I named her Makenna Darlene. I lost my daughter when I was 7 months pregnant. The umbilical cord was wrapped around her neck 3 times. I got to hold and kiss and feel my baby girl. I cry everyday over my loss. The only thing that keeps me going is to know my mom did get that chance to hold her and kiss her...in heaven.
