In Jasmine's memory

When everyone else is remembering a memorial day for the Veterans and lost soldiers I remember my daughter. She was born November 17th 1994 and she died February 18th 1995. She was only three months old. Everytime November swings around I start to think about her more and more ... then veterans day comes and I remember her more. Everyone starts talking about memorials and soldiers and I remember my daughter was born so close to Veterans day. Its just coincedence really that she was born around Veterans day. Sometimes is seems like a curse too. People are out marking graves and reminders are everywhere in the stores .. makes it rough for a mother who has lost. To make it worse I lost a son near September 11th. The reminds are always out there ...

Jasmine died of SIDS. She simply went to sleep one night and never woke up again. She was a beautiful healthy happy little baby girl. No reason for her death other than SIDS.

I will always remember her.

My heart goes out to you. I haven't lost a child but that is my worst fear. So sorry to hear about the loss of your daughter and son. I can't imagine the pain you are going through, I can only hope it gets better for you.

No matter what is doing on, Dena, you are always going to think about the death of your children. How could you not? YOu mentioned your son but did not tell us about him.

I am sorry for your loss. One child is unbearable...but two?

No one should have to outlive their children.

I have been wanting to go to visit Jasmine's grave and maybe put some flowers on it but haven't wanted to go alone. I haven't been back to her grave since the cold winter day we buried her. I always think of her when November comes around. She was such a beautiful sweet baby.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I could not imagine having either of my children taken from me.

I'm sorry for your loss.

Hugs to you, Dena. I have lost a child in still birth, but not one to SIDS. I know it must be difficult to know you spent that time with them and then they were gone. You are in my thoughts as Nov. 17th approaches.

I am so sorry for your loss. My oldest brother was born in November 1968, and died in February 1969, also of sids, so those times are really hard for my dad, too.
