My daughter, Amy, has miscarried and we've had to have the ambulance come and get her because she's losing so much blood. I'm leaving for the hospital now and would really appreciate your prayers. I'll post more later. Thanks!

At the hospital they have her on some stuff that should help her quit bleeding. The last time she had trouble stopping the bleeding for a couple of days.
This is so hard. I really, really wanted her to have this baby especially since she's lost 3 others. It was so scary to walk in and find my daughter in the bathtub with a lot of blood. I didn't think that I'd be able to handle it, but I managed. It hasn't been without falling apart a few times. Please continue to keep her in your prayers especially praying that the bleeding will slow down to what is normal.

My son-in-law just called and the doctor is going to do a D & C and they're going to give her some blood.

Diana I am so sorry she lost the baby. Thank you for getting back to us and of course we all, I'm sure, will have you and your daughter in our thoughts and prayers today. It's amazing what we mothers can handle when it comes to our children, isn't it? You let yourself too, feel the sorrow, your daughter will need you.

My husband and I went in about noon to check on her. She'd just been out of surgery for a little while, but said that she was feeling a lot better. She had 2 units of blood given to her and it really helped. She had gotten up to use the bathroom and passed out and that was when they decided that she needed a D & C. It ended up that the placenta was still in there and was causing the loss of blood.
When the hospital first put her in a room it was a shared room, but we have friends that work there and as soon as a private room opened up they had her moved. One of the guys on the ambulance and two of the nurses in the hospital are from our church. There is nothing more comforting than to know that they're praying for you as soon as you arrive at the hospital. God is good!

Glad she was feeling a bit better yesterday, how is she today Diana?

Diana, how is your daughter doing? I'm sure she'll be fine physically, but I pray after all the miscarriages she's had to endure, that she'll be fine emotionally. Please tell her again, she's in my prayers.

My husband talked to her this morning and she's really sore all over. She thought that it had to do with some of the medicine that she was given. The doctor hadn't seen her when my husband talked to her, but she's wanting to go home today. I can't believe that a person can almost die and go home the next day!
Amy had said she's not going to get pregnant again and I agree. My nerves cannot take what I've seen and gone through again. I was so scared. At one point I grabbed the phone and called my Mom and our Pastor and told them to pray, even though it was 2:30 am. She was so pale and I didn't know what else to do.
Amy's house and my house are on the same property, separated by a pond and lots of trees. After the ambulance left I came home to change clothes and go to the hospital and the ambulance turned around and followed me home! They ended up out in the meadow almost stuck in the mud!! It was funny except for the fact that my daughter was in there. The male EMT finally took over the driver's seat and they slipped and slided out of the mud and finally flew to town. My daughter says that she never expected to "go muddin' in an ambulance"! Now it's funny, then it was NOT!

I am so sorry to here about your daugther. I will keep her in my prayers. Have you ever heard of Gary smally? In one of his series he talks about how tramatic events being the things that bring family's together later. He says its never funny when you go through them, but its silly things that you remember.
I do not mean to minimize the terrible loss of the baby and the terrible scare with your daughter. The ambulance driver statement is what I am refering to.

I understand what you're saying. I was really surprised that she was already laughing about it. However she does have a really good sense of humor!
I've had her two girls while she's been in the hospital and the first morning found us chasing after the school bus after we had missed it! We eventually caught up with it! I'm sure that the girls will make sure that Mama hears about that one!! My daughter had to be in town early and wasn't there to remind us of what time we needed to be at the end of our lane.

It would be funny to be a bird in a tree watching that!

Yeah, we pulled down to the end of the lane and one of my granddaughters says "There's the bus and we missed it!" The other says "No we didn't" but when I looked (it was through the trees and about a quarter of a mile away), sure enough it was about to go out of sight!! So off we went, racing as fast as the dirt road would let us!!! We caught up with the bus at my son's house and parked right in front of it so it couldn't get out of the driveway without the girls. I'm sure that the bus driver (who is a friend) was getting a good laugh!!!

I am so sorry for your loss.. We are sending prayers here also. I know what you went thru.. my daughter in law miscarraied 3 times also. Her last preganancy she carried for 6 months then she started to bleed. She almost died. She started to hemmorage and they had to fly her to Springfield Illinois to the Preemie hospital. She finally got okay and the baby only weighed 1lb 12 oz. Now this was 3 years ago.. My granddaughter is great. she is still tiny but doing fine. So I know what you are going thru. It takes time and prayers. She can't have any more children either. SO were praying for you. Libby my Maltese is sending prayers also.!

I'm so glad Diana that your daughter still has her sense of humor. What else can she do...she has other children who need her. She must be a very strong young woman. We need more like her in this world. There is always adoption...so many children need a parent like her.

She got to come home last night after they gave her another unit of blood (she had 3 units in all). I took some supper over to her and she was telling me that when the doctor came in and talked to her that he told her that she probably lost 3-4 pints of blood (your body has 6 quarts of blood) and that he'd never seen anyone bleed like she was bleeding. I know how lousy I feel when I donate just 1 pint of blood to the donor bank and I can't image how bad she felt losing that much. I know that she looked really pale and was very weak. I know that everyone's prayers were heard by God and that's why she's doing so well. Your prayers are really appreciated.

Glad shes at home Diana, how is she holding up?
Janet

So happy that she's home Diana. It will take her some time to heal physically and emotionally. I'll keep her on my prayer list to have a speedy recovery.

So glad she's home Diana. Now maybe she can heal in every way. She has to be physically weak and emotionally drained.

Now that IS the CUTEST picture ever, awwwww im melting!! You have to make that into a poster, and cards - that is soooooooo darn precious!!

Thanks for all of your prayers. They have really been appreciated! Amy was up and around a little bit yesterday, not too much, and she's feeling a lot better. She's actually talking about going back to work on Monday!! As her mom, I think that she needs more time to recouperate and I hope that she talks to her doctor before she goes back.
We've been dealing so much with her health that the loss of the baby has been forgotten for now but I know that as things settle down she'll begin to feel that loss more. The last miscarriage was really hard on her emotionally so I'm a little worried about this one. I've had a miscarriage so I can understand the grieving that comes with losing a baby.
I appreciate you guys so very much, all your support, and your prayers. The words "Thank You" cannot convey the appreciation I have for each of you.

Diana, how is Amy doing? Has she really gone back to work? I hope she thinks of herself, and takes time off to recouperate, it takes time for her body to recover.
Janet
05-01-2007, 08:03 AM
I do hope Amy takes a little more time to recouperate. A little time to heal physically and emotionally. I guess as parents all we can do is be there for them.

Oh Diana! I missed this thread when I was away and I am SO sorry to hear of your daughter's loss. I hope she is healing well. I know you will be a great support and source of strength for her as she deals with the emotional issues. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Amy tried to go to work this morning, thinking that she'd stay until noon (she's a para at our middle school), but she got really dizzy and had to come home after a short time. I think that she was upset because she really wants to go to work to keep her mind off of her miscarriage. The sadness caused from hormones has started to set in. She still could use your prayers. I appreciate you checking on her.
Diana, my prayers continue for you all. I hope your dd is able to feel better very soon.

Diana, I've been of the forums for a few days. So sad to hear of your loss. I know how haunting a miscarriage can be, but three and the physical strain must be very difficult. It is our hope and prayer that your daughter and your family will heal soon.
