A day of rememberance


September 11 is a day of remembrance for our country as so many lost their lives in the World Trade Center. This day will always be a day most of us will remember. We know where we were, what we were doing and the sadness we felt for all.
As I walked into the hospital September 10th I knew September 11 would take on a new form of grief for me. I cannot explain how you prepare yourself to give birth to a child that has already died. Such emotions and a want in your heart to just give up, but you cannot. You must continue both physically and mentally. I am heartbroken that Isaiah is not here with us yet I know he is safe.
 

9-11-14 how do you celebrate the birthday of a child that passed before his birth? I will celebrate the idea, life moments and time in utero I did have Isaiah! Not how I would like to "celebrate" for I fight to find what is uplifting about the death of a baby. Instead I concentrate on the power of Isaiah's name! Chosen specially for him, a name I always loved but brought to truth with the birth of my 5child, stillborn.
I asked my facebook friends to do this and the response has been amazing. It gives my son a voice, a message and a purpose. Please join in if you like. I ask you all to share the power in the name Isaiah today! Verses from the Book of ISAIAH that were with us through our journey with Nathanael and helped us walk through saying goodbye to our sweet baby. Some may have never heard the meaning and encouraging words from the book of Isaiah! I choose to honor my son by sharing those words from which he was named for! Help me bring meaning to my sweet boys life/death!
