My son's name was Christian, he was my little fighter and he always will
be.=20
Christian was my fourth pregnancy and he has a big brother (Anthony 4).

We have had problems having a second. Anthony was my first pregnancy and
everything was fine.  My second was a molar pregnancy and the third I
miscarried really early in. When we found out we were pregnant with
Christian we thought everything would be great and that Anthony would
have his little brother, well he did for a couple of days. I don't know
if I can add pictures but if I can I want to share with all of you my
two precious boys.=20
I feel very blessed for being able to spend as much time with Christian
as we did.=20
We went through so many struggles with him. At first they said he
wouldn't make it through the pregnancy, and then they said he wouldn't
make it through delivery, and then they said he wouldn't live very long
after birth. Well he proved them all wrong for the most part. I used to
pray to god and ask him to give us a couple of days with him.  I didn't
want to be the only one who would get to spend time with him.  Christian
got to meet his big brother, daddy, both grandma and grandpas, his aunt
and uncle and his great grandparents as well as my best friend and her
daughter.  He was a very special little man and had lots of friends.
Most of my office came to see him.  I got pictures of my coworker
holding him. (It was his first time holding a baby).  For me that was
even more special and I hope it was just as special for him.=20
He had an awesome service and was buried with a little monkey just like
the one his big brother has.  I know Anthony doesn't understand and will
when he grows up but for now he thinks Christian is still in the
hospital. I know it is because that was the last place he saw him, but
it hurts a little. =20
If you would like to know more his story and pictures should be on the
inlovingmemory site soon. I submitted everything last week.=20
Thanks you guys I think you guys are good for me=20

Hi Marianne,
Welcome, but I too am sorry that you need to be here. Your words to
Stacy=20
are very wise. I would love to hear about your precious little boy. Do
you=20
feel up to sharing a little about him? What was his name? I am glad that
you=20
got to spend a little time with him.

Life consists not in holding good cards but in playing those you hold
well.
