Thank you, Jeanette, for a beautiful and concise post.  Good job all round--
from the hospital who referred to you to mother helping her baby.  There are
worse things than a short life and some parents experience the whole gamut
of attachment and loss and everything in between in the course of a dramatic
few hours, days or weeks.  GREAT if everyone involved makes their experience
as rich as it can be, like here.
in admiration and gratitude for your sharing
