Unfortunate news...........

First I would like to say thanks to all the well wishers in my previous thread about the news of my wife and I being pregnant. As many of you have experienced there is no greater joy than first hearing your going to be a Daddy and it does not grow old the second time.

That being said, my wife and I found out yesterday that we lost the baby and are no longer pregnant. I know that there are any number of reasons why this occurred in medical terms but it still hits hard on the heart and is even worse for my wife.

Again, thanks to all the well wishers and pray for the little ones here now and who went before.

Charlie

Charlie,

So sorry to read that, my prayers go out to you two.
 
Charlie, I'm very sorry to hear this news.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your wife.

My wife had two miscarriages before our first was born.
I know all too well the pain and anguish this can cause a husband and wife.
Take care my friend.
 
There is so much excitement and jubilation when you hear you're going to have a child. It must be about the most agonizing thing in the world to have to face a different reality after having such high hopes. I'm praying for you and your family.
 
This is nothing worse than losing a child. My wife and I lost our 14 month old daughter last March and It's been hell since. We are seeing some better days now though so hang in there. My avatar is my daughter that passed.
 
I know how heartbreaking it is. I am truly sorry. Just give your wife lots of love, she needs it right now. My prayers are with you.
 
To All-

Forgive the canned response but there was such an outpouring it would take me all day to respond individually to both the posts and the PMs received. I wanted to thank each of you for the thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. We are taking things day by day and Janette is feeling a bit better the more she hears “It’s not your fault” which I am hammering home to her. Whatever the reason it did not work out, we are young enough that we will try again.

Through this experience I have also learned that many others share similar if not the same events in their lives. They have voiced this to me and this bolsters Janette and I knowing that we are not alone in this. Of course, not everything is the “glass is half empty” as we have Charlotte who is officially entered into the “Terrible Twos” age last week and let me tell you she has mastered it in a matter of days! For her we are thankful.

I will close by saying that many don’t realize what a tremendous community Cigar Pass is but rest assured there is no doubt in my mind. Thanks to all for your continued support.

See you on the boards,

Charlie
 
Charlie,

My sincere sympathy to you and your wife, sending you thoughts and prayers.


While I am not of the religious persuation that holds this view, I set this premise for those who are better informed than I. A few year's back, a good friend lost his first child, and I shared with him this view. A Buddhist Monk explained to me that those who believe in reincarnation hold that some some souls are so close to Nirvana, they merely need one last turn on this earth to reach it. Thus children and the unborn who pass are perhaps reaching their Nirvana and the persons selected to complete the cycle are chosen for their good heart and strong spirit. Perhaps this is a comfort.

Charlie,

So sad to hear the news. Wifey and I lost a baby some 20 years ago and was very tough, especially on her. We still think about it occasionally.

Give momma a hug and say a prayer. God's strength will be your strength.

Blessings,

Gary
 
Charlie...continue to encourage your wife and shower her with all your love. You are the rock in her life...blessings to you both and little Charlotte.
