They stand as a testament that you can be happy again but they will also tell you that you never forget your baby.Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15431384515813384025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6999892652000718566.post-11106778324552563412009-11-10T15:57:18.532-05:002009-11-10T15:57:18.532-05:00I use to say I "lost" Cora a lot too. U...I use to say I "lost" Cora a lot too. Until I talked to a friend whose sister was stillborn when she was 5. She told me that she used to think that her parents misplaced her baby sister. More specifically that the got left in the parking lot of a store they went to frequently, and developed a fear that her parents would lose her there too. As much as it hurt, I started saying when Cora died from that point, because I didn't want my living children to think that I would ever lose them.<br /><br />It gets easier to bear. I don't think it ever hurts less, you just learn how to carry it so it doesn't hurt so sharply or so frequently. You'll get to the point where the grief isn't constantly at the front of your attention but on a back burner, where you know it's there but you don't have to pay attention to it all the time anymore.<br /><br />((hugs))Brittaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09163482845611038936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6999892652000718566.post-45156356963900703222009-11-09T19:49:00.140-05:002009-11-09T19:49:00.140-05:00I know what you mean about feeling robbed.
