Shanna,
I am so sorry for your recent loss.  My son is named Tyler too.  He passed
away last year in March 3, 2006  We did know prenatally that he had trisomy
18.  But he didnt end up living.  He died at birth.
I hope you feel welcome here and find a place to talk about everything that
you feel.  It is so hard because others just dont understand.  This is
something so different than what most experience in life.  Its different
that losing a parent or a friend.  Others try to understand but losing a
child is just like no other.  And so unexpectedly makes it so much harder.
I know your hopes and dreams were with Tyler.  I hope you can help Tyler
live on through many other avenues in your life.  It takes time but I think
we all find ways to be able to do that.
It has been a little over a year for us now, and it does get easier.  But I
remember being in your spot like it was yesterday.  Just know that whatever
you feel is normal.  Its okay to feel crazy, depressed, scared, fearful, or
anything else.  I think I felt every emotion possible for the first months
after my Tyler died.  I am forever a different person because of all this.

Take care,

Erin
