[Bow Tie 67]

I'm at a loss for words, but will say your faith is your best friend. God bless.

[Blue67gto]

[parsonsj]

We lost our first the same way. Now we've got a pair of awesome kids (even though they are now teenagers, we love them anyway). Good luck with future attempts to start your family.

That is very sad, God works in mysterious ways. Good luck.

[Pro Stock]

Your loss saddens me, your faith tells you that she is with Jesus now and that is a good thing,I will pray for your wife and you, what is your wifes name and what did you name your baby?

I was in the same place not too many years ago.Don't avoid talking about how you feel with those close to you.We found out the hard way what happens when you keep things bottled up.Keep your head up and try to stay positive.Best wishes.

[edog1]

sorry to hear of your loss

[67 ls1 vert]

very sad news. Hope that you and your wife stay strong and keep your head up as much as possible.

[Samckitt]

I have two kids, one of them we almost lost after birth. As you stated, God had other plans. I'm sorry for your loss. Hopefully things turn out that you can try for another, if that is your plans. Thoughts and prayers with you & your family.

[mc84_zz4]

I'm so sorry for your loss, be strong for her, and be there for her.
I hope soon this will be behind you, your family will be in my prayers.

[sunkistcamaro]

Im so sorry to hear about your loss.

[twosaturns]

I am very sorry for your loss. we have 3 kids but had a miscarriage before they came along.
it's very important you be supportive of your wife as they deal with this much differently than we do.
I appreciate you have a faith in God as I do. Our creator does not 'take' our children from us as part of a 'plan', but rather, do to our imperfect state we suffer the results of that imperfection. The scriptures promise a resurrection of those in God's memory. it is truths like this from his Word that build my faith and allow me to keep enduring.

[Tom Welch]

The 23rd Psalm comes to mind. It always helps me when things get rough.

[coolwelder62]

So sorry for your loss.You and your family will be in our prayers.May GOD be with you and your's.

[SixD7]

Sending good thoughts your way.

I will have to agree with this. At 20 years old and less than a year of marriage we lost one, I didn't know how to deal with it. She never told me how much it bothered her until after she served me papers. Communication, it's important.
I'm very sorry to hear of your loss. It's never an easy thing for me to talk about either.

[04ctd]

i dunno what to say. live is SO TOUGH sometimes.

we went to a retreat, and the guy speaking had lost his first baby. it was all in God's will, but it still tore him up.

i think it could rip you & wife apart. make sure you pray, listen & talk.

1 Thessalonians 5:17
pray without ceasing,

here ya go:


Psalm 23

A Psalm of David.
1 The LORD is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
3 He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake.

4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life;
And I will dwell[a] in the house of the LORD
Forever

I am sorry for your loss, your family are in our prayers.

[trapin]

Terrible news. I am so sorry for you and your wife, but you're right...the big guy had other plans.

Stay strong for your wife and I'm sure it will all work out in the end. As always, we're always here if you need us.

[jimhamptons]

I am very sorry for your loss.

[tart'67]

Our prayers are with you on this; we "only" had a miscarriage and that was very tough. Death was not part of the original plan, but unfortunately we took a not so fun detour, someday soon, hopefully very soon, death will never be a conversation again (1 Cor 15:53-55). Keep the faith and strengthen it- make sure your wife knows that you love her more than anything this earth has and both of you will be the stronger for it.

[shmoov69]

Wow, I'm so sorry for you and your wifes loss.
I am glad that there are so many on here that will support you in prayers and whatever else you need. I agree with all that has been said already. Put you burdens on the ONE that can handle them. Don't be too "strong" to deal with it yourself.

[John Wright]

Sorry to hear of your loss. You and your wife are in my prayers.

[Nessumsar]

I don't know what to say that has not already been said...

Even though I am not a religious man, I will send good thoughts and prayers your way. I hope you and your wife are not deterred by this event; and that one day you will be able to have a family.

[gearbanger]

Man I had the same thing happen Jan 18 2008. We had a little girl after a perfect pregnancy and she only lived three days. It was three days of hell culminating with my wife and I having to make the decision to take her off the drugs and ventilator that was keeping her alive. It was our first try so it was really devastating and nearly impossible thing about doing it again. It turned out she had a genetic disorder called CHARGE association and we had to go through alot of testing too. It took a year to get through it but it helped us to develop the confidence to try again. We now have a happy healthy little 8 month old boy. I still think about the little girl all the time and it still hurts to think about it but it gets easier as time goes on. If you ever need to talk to someone, just PM me with your number and I'll give you a call. It really does help to talk about it. Somehow things just seem to work out better when you put it out there in words.

It is always sad to hear about a loss of any child. Cherish the moment and you will be blessed through more children to come. My prayers are with you, your wife and family.

[DFRESH]

This happened to some good friends of mine with their two year old. They lost him to a sickness---was very, very hard. It's been two years, and it's amazing how much they are able to help others now who are facing similar situations. They asked God to use their situation somehow and in someway to bless others and He has. I spoke with him just this last week (Drake--the father of Judson) and he said that helping others (to get through similar situations) has really helped them (Drake and wife) heal from their loss. I know God can and will do the same for you guys.

I know mom's already seem to carry an enourmous amount of guilt, so keep an eye on your wife to ensure she isn't blaming herself for this--that would be the worst. So sorry for your loss-my family and I will be praying for healing for you guys and to fully recover.

To say that it is hard to fasthom the emotional turmoil associated with this type of event would be an understaement. My sincerest condolences go out to you and your wife.


And BTW, I love you guys. Everyone who has stepped up show your support for someone in our little community continues to show why I am involved in our car culture, as you all are the best bunch of guys I know!

[Steve1968LS2]

Very sorry to hear about your loss.. no parent should ever have to endure loosing a child.

Condolences and best wishes to you and your wife.

[speedshftr]

thank you everyone for being so supportive.this place is more than just cars its a brotherhood.same on lat g.it really makes me feel good to read all your guys posts.THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH

[406 Q-ship]

I am so sorry to hear about your loss. There is another angel in Heaven. Take good care of your wife and yourself through this trying time. You are in my thoughts.

This is the best group of people I have had the privilage of meeting on the internet (anywhere for the most part), between helping hands on the cars and the personal support when things get tough.

To all the Pro-tourers here.....Thanks for being you!

[454bug]

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. My wife and I will definitely keep your family in our prayers.

I can tell from your posts that your faith in God will help you and your wife get through this...

When I've been up against some really trying times in my life I like to read this poem I have framed at my house:

Footprints in the Sand
One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord.
Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.
In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand.
Sometimes there were two sets of footprints, other times there were one set of footprints.
This bothered me because I noticed that during the low periods of my life, when I was
suffering from anguish, sorrow or defeat, I could see only one set of footprints.
So I said to the Lord, "You promised me Lord, that if I followed you, you would walk with me always.
But I have noticed that during the most trying periods of my life there have only been one set of footprints in the sand.
Why, when I needed you most, you have not been there for me?"
The Lord replied, "The times when you have seen only one set of footprints, is when I carried you."

Just remember, you're never in these tough situations alone... Many times, it may seem like it but don't forget to ask for help and support from God, family, friends, and co-workers...

Take care and God Bless you and your family.

[Larry Callahan]

Very sorry to hear about your loss. I wish you and your family the best.

The loss of a child is such a heartbreak. My thoughts are with you and your wife.
