I waited on pins and needles for the birth of my seventh grandchild, girl number 2. Little Chloe Lane. She arried 5 weeks early on Feb 22,2008. after spending 2 weeks in the hospital she came home and we all enjoyed her for Easter. Sadly she died the following Friday. March 28 at just 5 weeks old. These pieces are my tribute to our angel.

Without you the birds
Don’t sing as loud -
Look at this picture
It’s such a delight -
The perfect family we were for a fact
Until the hand of fate took care of that -
I’ve felt her wings so gentle and light
As they caress my face late at night -
When I get to Heaven, believe me when I say
I’m going to find Chloe without any delay -
I’m expecting a great Christmas this year
We have lots of reasons to spread some cheer10 lines, 3 comments, on Dec 12 6:40 AM 2007. In Personal

I just posted on Remembering Chloe Lane. I lost my son 29 years ago. I was an OB nurse for many years and have dealt with the loss of babies many times. I helped to start a support group and this helped me and many others. You are on the best road for healing by writing your feelings down as you progress to a place of peace. I wrote about my experience on storywrite. It's called weighing sorrow but you may want to want a while before you read it. Love and Light to you and Your family
