Comments:a lovely memorial missy and never a tear away eh? my mum's first baby [and i realise the significance of saying my mum's baby, because we never considered my dad had lost his first born] was born withanencephaly 65 years ago. so i suppose i am a rainbow baby! we were always aware we had a sister in heaven and we used to tour the graveyard nearby searching for a grave or something to do with her. all those yaers ago they put new babies with someone who died the same day and we never knew who she was buried with...so sad. i congratulate you on yr facebook group i find it so rewarding to say nice things to these grieving mums....well done xxx

I am going to have to light a candle tonight. This story is amazing and I wonder how you were able to do that. You have touched me. What a wonderful woman and mother you are!!!

Comments:What a beautiful site to a beautiful little boy. I don't know how you got through it and were able to physically let him go after holding him. I think that's what I was scared of after our baby was delivered, not being able to let go, I can't turn back time but if someone else was going through the same I would say hold your baby, it's 100% you and it's daddy. I think holding my baby would probably have helped come to terms with the loss more greatly, I just hope he/she knows how much they were loved. Claire x

Comments:My baby boy Jonathan is now with Jesus too. I too found out at 21 weeks that he had Anencephaly, I found it hard at first to believe it. The pain I had to go through to come to terms with the fact he wouldn't survive and then in making the decision to have him early or not was almost unbearable. However, when it came to the day to be induced I had an amazing sense of peace through it all. Jonathan was with us for almost 2 1/2 hours and the time we spent with him was so peaceful and precious. I felt he was holding on for our benefit rather than his, he held our had and even opened his eye a little - babies of 22 weeks arn't supposed to do that (so they say!) He is our little miricle and I will treasure that time God gave him to us forever. We named him Jonathan meaning 'Gift of God' as I know the time we had with him was a gift and his little life has taught me so much. I now have a greater appreciation of how precious children really are, their angels are continually in Gods prescence... God loves our children more than we can ever imagine and he knows whats best for them.
We had Jonathans funeral last week and although at times its been hard I have known Gods peace and I know I will one day see him again... I have been saying all along this journey that "God is good" and its true, God never changes, our challenge now is to comfort those with the comfort God has given us.

Emily, thinking of you at this time and praying God will give you the same comfort and peace with which he now comforts our own children. Big hugs sister in Christ, Natalie x

P.S At the end of Jonathans funeral I had a beautiful, peaceful picture come to me. It was of Jesus walking with Jonathan away from me. I saw them walking away on a beach hand in hand, Jonathan glanced back acouple of times to check if I was alright, then went straight on with Jesus no longer looking back, happy to walk with him, at peace and content. Our children are in a different realm to us now, I hope this helps you, it has been a great comfort to me -x-

Comments:Your website has really blessed me. I went to the Anencephaly babies site,but never came to Matthew's Memorial. I lost my son on November 5, 2008, his name was Cayden Alexander. He was due to be here this month, March 23. I have really had a rough time the past few days because of it. I always think of him, but I have thought of him more and missed him more. I'm suppose to bring a healthy baby home this month.... I know my son is in heaven with Jesus, healthy and happy. I do take comfort in that, but still miss him terriably. We didn't find out about the birth defect until I was 21 weeks. We decided to have him early, I couldn't stand the thought of carrying him and then him suffer to live. Plus I have a beautiful 3 year old daughter, I belive that I saved her from the pain. I do not regret having him early, I really sought the Lord and felt like he was wanting Cayden with him. The poems on Matthew's Memorial are so beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing with me and others. Thank you for listening to me. God bless you and your family.

Comments:Hi

I stumbled across sites for anencephaly today whilst i was looking for the term 'incompatible with life'. Like yourself, i had a daughter who died of anencephaly although she was a livebirth and lived for just one day. It was back in 1986 and i was pressured to terminate the pregnancy as 'i was young enough to go on to have healthy children'. Fortunately i declined and Elizabeth was born 22 years ago in a couple of weeks - i get restless and inquisitive around this time as i feel there was no support at the time and no real explanations about anencephaly. My daughter looks just like your beautiful son in the picture.
Regards
Tracey

Comments:Thank you for your tribute to your beautiful son. I have been searching a lot lately for ideas on how to memorialize my daughter, Bernadette, who died almost 5 months ago. I never thought "why me" when she was diagnosed with anencephaly, but time and again I wondered what God wanted me to learn from her life. My sister told me,maybe God gave her to you because He knew you would accept for however long she lived. I see from your page Matthew was lucky God gave him to you. Peace.

Oh the day that you can meet her! she will take you in her arms and love you, as she did me in all of my life. Ask her to sing to you Puff The Magic Dragon, as she sung it to many years ago.

Comments:I have read your story and I must say how much I admire you for going through with your pregnancy. I found out on the day of my 20 week ultrasound scan that my baby girl had anencephaly. The words "incompatible with life" broke my heart. I made the painful decision of terminating my pregnancy, as I could not put myself or my baby girl through 4 more months of torture. I gave birth to her 4 days later on 15th April 2005 and she looked nothing like I imagined, she was beautiful. Although I feel empty and feel I can't carry on, I know she's being looked after in heaven. Your story is inspiring, and I hope I can carry on and be brave and strong for my little girl. Ellie Marie, born 15/04/05 weighing 5.9 oz, I miss you and I love you. You will always be a part of me. Anybody reading this, please get in touch if you want to talk.
