You are here: My son Shane
I went into labour at 26 weeks the hospital stopped it, but after a few hours it started again, remembering this was 1980. I had my son, he weighed 1 lbs 15 oz but there was a problem. I fell pregnant after having the coil fitted so it was not removed after he was born, I bleed alot before the midwife noticed. Anyway he kept having problems after problems, he would even pull out his tubes. After a while I didn't want to visit him incase he died. I had two older children under 4 and I was really drained.
Finally he was allowed to come home after 4 months. After a few days I noticed something was wrong, he would just scream out as though someone hit or pinch him but there was no one there. Two weeks later I found him unresponsive rushed him to the hospital but he died. I wanted to die but I had 2 other children to take care of, this was the worst time of my life. All these years later I still remember and feel it as if it was yesterday. After the postmortem he died of a rear bone disease and bad case of rickets which bought on pneumonia. I went on to have 3 more children safely, they help me deal with my loss.
