Our son, Nicolai Daniel Liedel, passed away in the early morning hours of October 24, 2012 before I woke up. I found out at 5:17pm, after not feeling him move all day, that he was gone. 24 hours later, on October 25, 2012 he was born, weighing 4lbs 14oz. I was 33 weeks and 4 days when he died. Despite a complete autopsy and blood work, no cause was found for his passing. It was a blissfully uneventful pregnancy, and we had no indication of the gut wrenching loss we were about to endure. He will always be my firstborn son. It would not matter if I went on to have 1000 more children, I would always be missing one.
Nicolai
Oh the agony in dad's face.
ReplyDeleteHe is a gorgeous, gorgeous boy. I've just read through your 'capture' posts and am so moved by the way you talk about your Nicolai. I'm so sorry he's not here in your arms. Remembering him today.
