That's so sad... You are a wonderful, caring sister, and that will be a big comfort to her.

Make sure you save something from the shower. Later she will want a few little things to remember - it can be a good idea to help her make a memory box with special little things, Maddie's name tag from the hospital, photos, a few clothes, that kind of thing. Although it will be very hard right now, later she will be glad to have it.

I will just say that from personal experience I know what your going through. Our prayers are with you at this time. There's never the right words that can make anyone feel better sometimes....just be there for her to hold onto and cry. She needs everyone around her. Deepest sympathy....hugs and prayers to everyone.

I'm so very very sorry for your loss. I lost my son a week before his due date. It was the most devestating thing that has ever happened to me. This is going to be a very difficult and long road for her and although nothing will make the pain go away, having supportive family and friends are so crucial right now. Please know that you and your family are in my prayers.

Been there and it is devastating. She needs counseling. Seriously. I lost mine at 5 mos and that was awful. Panic attacks, etc. ensued for a while after. Healing vibes and God's blessings. Pat

Oh hun, I am so sorry, give your sister a big hug from the cake ladies. And a big hug for Auntie. My sis in law lost her son at 5 months, identical story to your sisters except a boy.

Your family is in mine's thoughts and prayers.

I will definitley be praying for you all as I know the pain youre feeling. My son has been gone for about 3 and a half yrs now, and only lived 18 days. I absolutely treasure anything that touched him, and hope that your sister was able to keep some things and take pictures. I know that may seem odd to some, but I am so thankful to have my photos. She may need some space, but let her know that you are there for her. You have all suffered a great loss, my prayers are with you all. Please let your sister know that if she needs ever to vent to someone outside of the situation I would be happy to be that person. God Bless

Thank you all so much. We were able to make a mini scrapbook for later. Beautiful baby girl is in heaven because God needed another angel with him. The road to take now is unclear but we will see the end someday. Thank you all again. God Bless you all.

Some very good friends who lost their baby girl put together some advice for helping bereaved parents. It could be very helpful to you and your family:

http://www.galdiano.net/documents/HelpingBereavedParents.pdf



I also found solace in this passage from Erwin W. Lutzer's book "One Minute After You Die" (p. 75):

"The death of an infant, however, causes all of us to struggle with the will and purpose of God. It seems strange that God would grant the gift of life and then cause it to be snuffed out before it could blossom into a stage of usefulness. But we can be sure that there is a purpose in such a life, even if it is not immediately discernible.
"James Vernon McGee again says that when a shepherd seeks to lead his sheep to better grass up the winding, thorny mountain paths, he often finds that the sheep will not follow him. They fear the unknown ridges and sharp rocks. The shepherd will then reach into the flock and take a little lamb on one arm and another on his other arm. Then he starts up the precipitous pathway. Soon the two mother sheep begin to follow, and afterward the entire flock. Thus they ascend the tortuous path to greener pastures.
"So it is with the Good Shepherd. Sometimes He reaches into the flock and takes a lamb to Himself. He uses the experience to lead His people, to lift them to new heights of commitment as they follow the little lamb all the way home."
