I am so sorry for your loss, CM and like the others I am shocked and appalled ay the hospitals idea of treatment. For now I will be grateful for them saving your uterus and not letting their incompetance cost you anymore than it already has.

I am so glad you got your DP to take the photo. You may regret that decision now, but you coule well have set yourself up to regret not taking one for a good deal longer.

The ache never goes away. It will always be there - you just need time to adjust to having it. I definitely agree that it is best if both you and your DH ensure that you work through your grief and talk when you feel you need to. You cant let yourself or him bury it and try and go on pretending its not there.

You have done a beautiful job on his memorial.
