1 year today...

One year ago today I was praying that I was wrong, that I was just having normal spotting... that I wasn't going to M/C, that there wasn't anything wrong...
One year ago today I was having my 1st appt, 1st U/S, and my husband would be in the room with me to find out the good, the bad, or the indifferent... I wish it hadn't been the bad!!
One year ago today, I had my fears confirmed...

Today I still cry when I think too much about it, today I still feel like my heart isn't whole...

Today I did something to bring others joy even when my own heart felt like breaking... I bought flowers for Christina and took a bedtime storybook to Jessica...
Christina I know doesn't understand why I brought her flowers, it's almost morbid to think about in a way really... I choose flowers that were bright and sunny, flowers that belong to the living... I thanked her for allowing even the smallest measure of inclusion into her little family - Raiden, who is approx the same age my child should have been, brings a smile to my face every time I see him even if it feels like my heart is seizing up and trying to batter my emotional wall down... bittersweet really...
Jessica is a truly special individual, she's had multiple M/C's and now she's finally looking forward to a beautiful take home rainbow baby boy...

It's not exactly healing... but it felt nice to bring a smile to someone else instead of dwelling in my pain!?

xxxxx's...so sorry...I really hope and pray you get that baby soon, though it does not ever take away the pain, it does ease it some...after the fear fades away...
I think doing something for others is a excellent way of not dwelling! I need to do something like that...
