Hi Jenny,

Sorry I’m a few days late, but I wanted to tell you that Alex will never, ever be forgotten. I think about you all of the time, and I’m glad you still write, even if less frequently, as I do myself. I know how hard this day must have been for you, and I want to give you a big hug. I hope today is a better day. Give Dylan a big hug, and smile when you remember your precious Alex.

Love Lauren

Comment on Message to Alex on his 2nd Birthday by Amy

Jenny. Sorry I am late but happy second birthday to Alex. I know it is hard. I too just celebrated my Alex’s second birthday and it was harder then the first because more and more time is passing that I haven’t seen him, held him, and I miss him so much. I understand your pain and I am thinking of you. The time from my Alex’s birthday to his angel day is and will always be hard. Keep your head up and hug Dylan a little more every day. I am thinking of you and am here if you need me. Take care!

Jenny. you are so not a horrible mother. I had to start work 6weeks after Little Henry was born. I had too, my family couldn’t afford any more time off. The most American women get is 12 weeks so i got half. A year would be amazing, but none the less it is hard for you. I hope you are working through it and in time it will get easier. We just had the big 1 on Dec. 31st. how cute was he with his birthday cake and being the center of attention. you are 100% correct with the fact that they have made ur heart feel happiness again.

Jenny….OMG! I am so happy to hear things are going well for you. I check Alex’s site from time to time to see if there are any updates and just recently found this site. Dylan is so beautiful. My baby boy who was born on Dec. 31st will be turning a year old shortly. Time really flys. He is walking and trying to talk and just acting so grown up. Well take care, have a great holiday.

hi there jenny.
i stumbled across your blog today and had to leave a comment. my son (born 9.11.06) was born with exactly the same CHD as your son Dylan. he actually had a few small VSDs which all closed on their own-it was the coarctation that we knew about before he was born. and he also has one bicuspid valve….they are so similar.
frankie had surgery when he was 4 days old (my birthday) and we were able to bring him home after 2.5 weeks. after he started to feed efficiently from a bottle, i was also able to nurse…(and now still am as he does not want to stop!)
frankie has done so well–we feel very fortunate that his repair went so smoothly. but i still have days that are hard when i imagine what it would have been like to have a completely “normal” pregnancy and delivery and early days with my sweet baby. it is hard also because i have so many friends having babies right around when i did and now again and they are all completely healthy. so it makes me enter into the “why me” zone again.
if you want to “talk” i would love it though because i have only one other “heart” mother whom i talk to here in the states.
let me know by posting your email address.
thanks, caroline
