I know that this isn't the best way to give this news, especially to those of you who are really close friends to me, but at the moment I just don't know any other way to do it.

On Tuesday morning at 3 am my water broke. I rushed to the hospital, where they did an ultrasound. The baby was still alive with a strong heartbeat, however they told me that the chance of a good outcome was almost 0. On Wednesday morning, April 12 at 2:49am I gave birth to our son, Ricky. I was only 16 weeks and 5 days pregnant, and he was gone before he ever entered into this world.

Please pray for me, and think of me. I never knew before that this kind of pain that I'm feeling in my heart even existed.

I hope you all understand why I didn't contact you individually, it's just too painful at the moment.

I'm so sorry Lis...so very sorry for your loss. Even knowing all we know - it is still very hard to understand and fathom the loss of a child.

I'm sorry I haven't been around to find out about this - I have been so caught up in my own drama

i love you and i love erik so much

all my love and prayers..every day...
