Oh Maya,
My heart goes out to you.  This is still all so fresh for you.  I  
guess one of the most major things I learned is that you never get  
over the loss of a child, but after awhile it hurts really bad less  
often.  And everyone has to go at their own pace to get to that point.  
  We lost our little Erin 13 yrs. ago when she was exactly 6 months. I  
had alot of hindsite about what we coulda/shoulda done different.  But  
I was comfortable with the life she had--she died very peacefully at  
home in my arms after living a very comfortable six months.

I did speak to you at the balloon release, but you probably don't  
remember me with there being so many people.  I know how hard my first  
conference was.  SOFT is a great group of people--that's why we still  
belong after all these years.

Gloria Jorgenson--mommy to angel Erin(11/4/94-5/4/95), plus Loren, 32;  
Adam, 31; Brenda, 27; Ashlyn, 16; and wife to Kim and grandma to 8.
