A Song for Daniel, Stillborn by Jean Felice Eilbert (his mother)
When I held you in my arms that day Born so still, born anyway How was I to know to say goodbye? No one knew just what to do Except tell me I'd get over you As if forgetting makes it all untrue -- a lie
But I remember to remember I can't forget just to forget Your memories are a part of me Connecting me to what comes next.
And even after all this while I think of you, sometimes I smile Memories of my unknown child, fade slow. I've held you in my heart each day Life so short, life anyway Memories are meant to say hello.

The Video Was Too Big...
...so you get a photo instead.
(the video was of her looking really sad as she wanted to jump and see over the fence)
Making my way through life with an angel on my shoulder and another one by my side. Follow me (and my dog) as I stumble through my new normal after the deaths of my daughter and husband.

Awww...poor Emma. It is so sad when animals have casts on. They look so strange and perplexed.
Poor girl! And a cast on a dog must be tricky- how in the world do you keep it clean?!
