Services for Mamie

FRIDAY, JUNE 26, 2009 AT 8:54PM Services will be held at Pulaski Heights United Methodist on Monday at 10:00. There will be a short reception following the memorial service at the church. This will allow Sarah and Taylor time to continue to rest and grieve in private at home after the services. Sarah and Taylor and our families thank you for all of your continued prayers. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brandi Parker and Family - Dear Sarah and Taylor, My heart hurts for you. I pray that you will find comfort and peace. Peace be with you.
June 27, 2009 - 4:31 pm Ginger Avvenire - Dear Sarah and Taylor, You don't know me but I am the aunt of Matthew Weber and that's how I learned of your sadness. I can relate very well to your suffering as I, too, lost a child, my first son - he would be 36 now, but the memory still hurts, when I am reminded of his lost. My heart goes out to you both and so too my prayers. Fortunately he was not to be my only son as I had 2 more. God has blessed me with wonderful boys and I pray that after this pain you will have more children, too. You can cry now - 'blessed are they who mourn', you have permission to feel sad and weep, so weep and don't feel guilty, it's ok! In fact, we are all crying with you, you can be sure of that, even if we don't know each other. I am also writing on behalf of my sister Susan Taylor, Matthew's mom. We both send our prayers wrapped in our tears to you both.
June 28, 2009 - 7:13 pm Cher - I am so sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you both, may God's peace and love shine on you both and make you strong through this trying time. HUGS Cher

Baby Burke- Please Pray

Taylor and I went in for our big ultrasound this morning. I am 18 weeks along now, so they were checking out our baby boy closely. They found 2 genetic markers that caused a red flag. One cyst on the brain and his kidneys are enlarged. We need lots of prayers right now. Prayers for these markers to disappear and for our baby boy to be healthy. We also need prayers for our sanity as we wait, hope and pray. We will go back for another ultrasound in 8 weeks (March 31). We were told not to look this up on the internet and would appreciate only positive comments on this situation. God is good and we are leaving it in His hands. Thanks for your prayers, Sarah

Introducing Mamie's Poppy Plates

As you all know, I am Mamie's mom, and Mamie was my first child. I was pregnant with her from October 2008 to June 25th, 2009 when she was born a sleeping angel (stillborn) two and a half weeks before her due date. Stillbirth and infant death are realities that too many parents face even today. Did you know that each year 1 in 115 babies delivered is stillborn? And 1 in every 102 newborns die before the age of 28 days old? Now, a year after losing Mamie, I have started Mamie's Poppy Plates, my organization providing keepsakes for parents who are not able to take their babies home from the hospital. Because handprints and footprints are something that we cherish as parents of children in Heaven or here on this earth, I wanted to find a beautiful way to preserve such a precious reminder of our babies. Your donation of $13 will provide a plate to bereaved families who are delivering at St. Vincent Hospital. Their baby’s birth stats, hand and footprints will be stampe

Burke 24 weeks and update on doctor's visit

We had our big ultrasound the other week and I have been meaning to update you all. Sorry for the delay. First off I did pass my glucose test which is great news. To celebrate Taylor bought me a big snickers :) ha! just what I needed after drinking pure sugar water all morning on an empty stomach. I did have a total melt down at Cornerstone that morning. After drinking the sugar water I figured Burke would be bouncing around in my belly. I couldn't get him to move at all. I can't even begin to tell you all how scared I was. I rushed back to my nurse in tears begging for them to get the doppler out. Within seconds I was on the table as they rubbed the doppler across by belly. I was a total wreck. I just keep thinking in my head "I have lost another baby!" The nurse quickly found his heartbeat and everything looked and sounded great. I was SO relieved but couldn't pull it together. I wanted to curl up in a ball and cry my heart out. Why? Why did I ha
