I have donated as much as I can afford to the March of Dimes in your daughter's name, and will continue to do so. Your family's story has really touched me, and I just pray that you continue to find strength in your husband, and the rest of your family. I am so incredibly sorry for your loss...

Maddie was absolutely adorable. My daughter was a premie and when you talked about visiting Maddie in the NICU with the "beeps", our time spent there came flooding back and I was brought to tears. My heart aches for you & Mike. We do not know one another, but from one mother to another, I feel your pain. Angie from PA I am speechless by your courage and beautiful words.

Every time I read one of your posts I cry because I put myself in your shoes, I try to imagine the way that you must be feeling, and I'm overwhelmed just thinking about the possibility of that. The fact that you snapped the picture of those early grapes, which is beautiful by the way, is a testament to your strength, and also to the power of Maddie's life. Because she is still inspiring you, moving you, pushing you forward. She might not be here physically, but she is with you...and always will be. <abbr><em>Gwen Jackson’s last blog post..<a href="http://gwenalisonwonderland.blogspot.com/2009/04/bridge.html" rel="nofollow">The Bridge</a></abbr></em> Heather – you ARE doing it and that is so inspiring to me.

Ive been reading your blog since the beginning of April ... I always end up in tears with a terrible physical pain in my throat and my chest .. I imagine that this is what you are feeling constantly. I can walk away from my computer and 'shake it off' after a few moments of putting myself back together. This morning I was reading this post and when I got to the final sentence my eyes were pouring tears and my throat was closed, it felt as if grief itself had me in a choke hold. It was at this moment that my daughter, whose name isnt Madeline or anything close but whom Ive called Maddie since the day she was born, cried out from her bed. I rushed in and asked her what was wrong .. all she would say was "She is so pretty, Momma". I dont know for sure who she was talking about but a part of my heart knows its your Maddie. I am so sorry for your loss .. for our loss. I pray that you will find comfort in knowing that Maddie will never feel pain again and that she will be happy and with you always.
