Losing a Child

dixie

I wanted to write a story in regards to child lost in birth and or adoption. It's hard to relate the two, but then again not. I am mother of five births. I have lost children and it's so sad the way it all comes about and being a grandma / nana makes no more easier for the loss. When the joy of giving birth to a normal healthy child comes around everyone is just so happy . The people never think and or it never enter their mind about what could have happenend . We could have had a still born child, or we might have not been able to afford to feed him / her and to have given her/ him up for adoption. Both instances are sad and or final . I know cause i have been through both. The adoption papers are signed and the baby is taken into another room and with different parents and most of the time never seen again. When we lost our second grandchild due to reasons beyond our understanding , there was no real warning as there is with an adoption you know it will happen and you even know the day and the hour, but you never know who the parents wiil be really or even the childs name first of last.

The same applies with miscarriages, you know something is happening most of the time cause there's that warning there, cramping , and or other syptoms that can't or probably i won't write on here. Our daughter went through some really tough times this past weekend with the loss or her child / even though it was a child we will never know whether it was a girl / boy the loss is still very painful as though we had , had though for a long time and it will never have their name and never call the names or mom or dad to them . Adoption on the other hand the child is given someones name just not the one you picked out first or last. IT'S SAID THING FOR ALL OF US MOTHERS / GRANDMAS AND OR PARENTS TO GO THRU. We need to push and pull together and help each other to understand what happens with the children, in adoption and why that must be and the miscarriages cause even though there's alot of difference there there's alot that's the same it all comes down to a loss of some kind.
