Picture Montage of my 27 week boy/girl twins for 1st birthday partyMy micro preemie Ethan
Thursday, July 16th, 2009
My water broke at 22 weeks. Ethan was born at 24 weeks. Ethan developed Nectorizing Entercolitis (NEC), a leading cause of death in preemies, his intestines perforated, causing fluids to leak into his bloodstream. His body became bloated making it difficult for him to breathe and his heart rate rapidly decreased. I was allowed to hold Ethan while he was dying. He took his last breath in my arms. Mommy misses you and loves you very much. Good bye my sweet angel.
