		<description>Hi, I just found you via Julie and read back this far. I am so very sorry for your loss. I lost my boy at 34 weeks nearly four years ago. It was my first ivf. 
I&#039;ll be thinking good thoughts for Simone&#039;s continued improvement.</description>

		<description>I just started reading your blog (came from Barren Mare), so I hope my from-a-perfect-stranger condolences are appropriate.  I&#039;m so, so sorry.  Your sweet little boy, your little Ames!  I can&#039;t imagine enduring the loss you have just gone through - with the added complication of needing to keep going for the sake of your little girl.  

I&#039;m not much of a god person myself, but I am sending heartfelt prayers to whoever may be up there in the sky that Simone and you both make it through to 36 weeks in hearty and healthy shape.

		<description>I am so sorry. I&#039;m not even going to try to say how much. I can&#039;t.

My best friends&#039; twins came two months early and are now just fine. My SIL&#039;s boss&#039; baby came 3 months early and is also just fine.

Imagine us all holding your hand as you go through each day.</description>

		<description>I have read your blog for years but never commented. I am so, so sorry for the loss of your baby boy. I was born 10 weeks early and weighed just 2.5 lbs. I spent months in an incubator and suffered hyaline membrane disease (my lungs were underformed and collapsed). My parents weren&#039;t sure I would make it. But, I fought to survive. And, now 33 years later, I am strong, completely healthy, and happy. I pray that Simone will be, too.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m so very sorry.  Ames is a beautiful name for a beautiful boy.  I can&#039;t imagine at all what you and Scott are feeling right now, the shock and devastation of it all along with the gratefulness that Simone is doing well.  It&#039;s just not fair, and I can&#039;t understand why something like this would happen to anyone.  So sorry.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t know you, but I wish that I did so I could give you a hug. A long hug full of the strength that you need to get through. I work in a hospital, and what you are going through it the most difficult experience. Keep breathing, and hopefully Simone can hear our prayers for a safe last trimester and a successful delivery. I will be thinking about you every day until you deliver.</description>
