Skylar's Love

Hi,

I'm Holly. On Jan. 16th, 2009, I gave birth to

my sweet baby boy Skylar at 17 weeks

gestation. It was the worst and most horrible

moment of my life. I felt so lost, alone, crazy,

unable to function as a mom to my other

children, and at times wanting to kill myself

to be with my beloved Skylar. I felt as a mom,

that I needed to take care of Skylar, even

though WAY back in my mind I knew he was

dead, and there was no way I could take care

of him as a mom should take care of their

baby. I'm slowly, and I do mean slowly

getting over feeling so sad that I will never

get the chance to hold Skylar again, take care

of him, or watch him grow up. I will never

forget Skylar, or the loss that I will forever

hold in my heart. The purpose of making this

website is to reach out to other parents. For a

place a dad, mom, or anyone who needs

emotional support.  As a former Social

Worker, Lactation Consultant, and Doula, I

know how important it is to reach out to

Moms, Fathers, Siblings, Extended Family

Members, and Friends, and

especially someone in need of extra support

and an emotional support system. 

And for my own emotional support this

is helpful for me to be a support person

 for anyone who needs to talk, to answer

questions, or a shoulder to cry on.

Love,

Holly
