Thank you all -- loving your words.

scribbling_scribe says,

i am so sorry for your loss. i hope you are surrounded with loving support.

KayTele says,

Thank you all! I am very lucky to have a wonderful husband and two little girls (my son's little sisters) to love and live with. We celebrated our son's birthday with a carrot cake and lots of talk of what we we think he would be like.

RainhaMom says,

I wrote my first six-word on the second anniversary of our daughter's death. I understand your sorrow.

KayTele says,

RainhaMom, I'm so sorry.

I think it is the kind of sadness, that, no matter how good everything else is, is always in your heart.

JWard says,

Hear(t) you. Mine would be thirty-one.

KayTele says,

Jward, I'm so sorry.

three-monkeys says,

I'm so sorry to KayTele and all who have lost a child. My tears just started streaming reading this. I can imagine nothing harder. My heart is with you.

LucidDreamer says,

KeyTele and everyone who commented here that's been thru the same - I can't begin to imagine what you have been through. So sorry for your loss.

zuleika says,

That is so hard. I think carrot cake is a wonderful tradition.

RainhaMom says,

KayT and JWard, may I ask how long it's been? For us, it's been a bit over two years. She would've been 25 now.

KayTele says,

RainhaMom, I'm so sorry -- two years is still very recent. I hope things are as peaceful as they can be. For me it has been six years. My son died at birth.

Thanks to everyone for the beautiful words.

soularcher says,

RainhaMom, KayTele, I'm so sorry. So short... yet so sad. Heartbreaking. I'm really sorry.

NoNickname1 says,

Kay Tele, my daughter just suffered the loss of a second pregnancy. Your strength and courage gave me permission to weep for your little one and for hers.

Amapola says,

So sorry to hear of your losses. Hope you all find a way to heal the pain.

Bevvie says,

Extremely sorry for your loss. This is the first day that I have been able to open your memoir to comment. I was too emotional to write when it first appeared. Much love to you and your family.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX says,

no words can undo what has happened, but perhaps if enough of them come through, you'll know how saddened we all are, and that you are not alone.

KayTele says,

Thank you all for the truly beautiful words. I'm so touched. Hugs for all.

JWard says,

RainhaMom. 4 years ago.

JWard says,

In fact, noting the most commented 6Word, my son was bipolar and it was awful.

MSKIASWAY says,

with tearful eyes sending you lots of love and healing energy.

three-monkeys says,

My sister also lost a child at birth...she too would've been six, but not for a few months. Again, I'm so very sorry.

Tamstarz says,

Beautiful tribute. Prayers and peace to you and your family.

KayTele says,

Thank you, all. Hugs, love and peace to all.

Mike_Bonheim says,

I just teared up when I read your words - "We celebrated our son’s birthday with a carrot cake and lots of talk of what we we think he would be like."

With two little girls, 2 1/2 and almost 5, I can not even begin to imagine what you have endured. I would not survive it. I simply would not survive it.

Your strength is a testament to the love you have for your other kids. God bless you, and as a non religious person, I honestly don't think I have ever said that to anyone.

StyxnStones says,

Like the others I was completely caught off guard. Your son will be my prayers tonight. Love to you and your family.

aschatte says,

off guard here, but my prayers for you. no amount of words can comfort your agony. Peace
