Comments: Hi! My name is Mindee and my son, Cameron, was born still January 18, 1995 at 39 weeks gestation. As we are nearing the anniversary date, I find myself coming online more and more, wanting to meet others and hear or read their stories. I love to talk about my son and share my experoience of losing a baby and subsequently becoming pregnant again soon after, and delivering a healthy baby. (Cody was born healthy January 9, 1996) I am sorry for us all, that we have lost the most precious things in our life. I would love to hear from anyone who just wants to make a new friend and talk about our angels. Tears, Mindee e-mail:katelyn@cyberhighway.net

Comments: Anchorage, Alaska December 1, 1996 I was rushed to the hospital by the advice of a physician in my doctor's group. I was going in for a D & C. This would have been my fifth child. The Tuesday before Thanksgiving we had found out that I was indeed pregnant, just that our baby had not formed like it should have. I have so much to be thankful for and I am everyday, it is still hard for me to not sit and wonder about the child that could have been. My husband-to-be has been terrific through all of this and for that I am very appreciative. We are trying once again, but both of us are still silent in some way. I hadn't realized this happens to so many people. People offer support, thank you, but the real support, to me, comes from those who have been through similiar situations. If so, I would like to hear from you.

Comments: Mother of 11 week boy- Jordan James Vaagen- died 1 month ago. Called him "My Little Man". Just starting to really deal with the grieving process now. Father having a hard time dealing with this also but not willing to open up. Some facts about they terrible day: was at daycare providers house, she fed him at approx. 3:00 p.m. and then laid him down for nap. Checked on him every 10-20 min and he was fine. Then last time she went in to get him up and play with him and found him clammy and light purple. Tried to give him CPR, then ambulance got there and took over. Got to hospital and the doctor worked on him for about a hour. Pronounced dead at 4:45 p.m. on November 27, 1996. Worst day of our lives and now we need to start coping somehow... someway. Please contact me if you have any personal support or words of wisdom

Request for Stories, Poems, and Letters about SIDS experience by African American SIDS Survivors. I just recently buried my 3 month and 10 day old daughter A'dream, she died Tuesday May 7, 1996. Cause of death: Sudden Infant Death Syndrome SIDS. I am combining a book of memories of African American Babies whose lives have ended suddenly to (SIDS). My ultimate goal is to reach the African Americans who have experience this tragedy. I attend many (SIDS) functions only to observe a small number of African Americans in attendance. This situation troubles me, because our babies are not being RECOGNIZED. I know that our babies are victims of SIDS, also. I am writing a book that will contain the memoris of African American SIDS Deaths. This book "A'dream Memories" will increase the AWARENESS of the Tragedies affecting our African American babies, their surviviors and also EDUCATE the Community about SIDS. Please forward your experiences to me at the following address: 4A'dream Memories 10209 Ridgefield Drive Indianapolis, IN 46236 E-mail: starms@iquest.net Thank you for all your help!

Comments: I am located in Manchester, England. I have recently submitted my PhD on bacterial toxins and SIDS. My work has provided some very interesting data, but we are chronically under-funded. If anyone reading this web site who is involved in allocating funds, please remember - SIDS is a multi-faceted syndrome and all areas of research should be funded, not just physiological studies or what subject is fashionable at any given time. Researchers like myself want to contribute towards searching for the fundamental cause(s) of SIDS, but when funding is withdrawn we must move on, this is what is happening in my case and I will be taking all of that knowledge with me. Don't you think that is a waste ?

The talk show spoke of the high content of gases in the stomack shoking the child. They (a college research, I think) said the high content of stomach gases was discovered in autopsys perfromed.

Losing Maggie and then expecting another baby are two subjects I could write pages about it, but today I am interested in SIDS/apnea monitors. My OBGYN has told me that the new baby will of course be on a monitor. I have read quite a bit about these monitors but have never seen the cost of one addressed. Do most insurance companies cover apnea monitors? I would appreciate someone who knows more about this subject writing to me at stevense@datastar.net. Thanks, Leslie in Mississippi.

My World right now is completely upside down and I have no answers. The autopsy on my baby reveal a perfectly healthy baby. I am having a most difficult time right now dealing with the fact that if he was so healthy, why is he not alive. I am in the "what ifs" as so is my babysitter, which is where it happened. Jesse was a beautiful, curious baby. I want to help with finding answers!!!

But one can feel the anger and the hate that other people show when they point their fingers at the parents of the lost child; as if these parents were murderers hiding behind a false disease. The disease is real. People you got to have compassion, love and support for these parents not hatred.

His name was Tanner James Carnell , from Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta. He was the first grandchild for my oldest brother Jim and his wife Jean, and he was very much loved. We donated money for research and or the special beds that are available for families who have children that may be at a higher risk of SIDS. Twenty five years ago to the day that Tanner died, one of my older brothers lost his infant baby to SIDS, his name was Cory Douglas Carnell, he was eleven and a half months old. I will surf these pages often and try to understand SIDS better. Perhaps I will be better able to be of some comfort to my nephew and his wife. Thanks for putting together this site.

They are 5 and 12 years old. 1) I would like to find out how close medical technology is to finding a cure for this disease. 2) What actually causes this disease in infants. I just want to let those who have experienced this know, that the pain is great, the lost is large, but it's better to have had and lost, than never to have had at all. It's been 17 years for me, but I still feel the pain from time to time.

If they have found out any medical evidence linking one with the other, it won't bring Sally back but as her parents we feel we should leave no stone unturned.

We were not allowed to talk about our feelings.For the longest time all I thought about was death and dying. I use to dream on a nightly basis , that my mother died. I would wake up sobbing it felt so real.My oldest daughter is now 6 ;yet,I still watch her breathe at night. Sometimes just living life seems so frightening to me,sometimes I just want to live in secluded area so there will be no worry. Is there any counseling for Adult Survivors of a Siblings death from SIDS? There are so many feelings I have not coped with yet.

Comments: We live in North London. Our son Wiliam died two-and-a-half-weeks ago aged 7 months. We were always aware of the risk of cot death, and made sure we didn't fall into any of the risk categories. There was no reason why William should die. The pathologist's report revealed nothing from the postmortem. The Senior Consultant Paediatrician at Edgeware Hospital has told us that the cause of death was apnea (stopped breathing), yet other research says that SIDS is not apnea - that William was already dead when he stopped breathing. Clearing this up is crucial, because William died during the day whilst at the childminder's. She is devastated and blames herself for not checking his breathing more carefully and more often. We don't want to blame her, and we want to believe that it's nobody's fault. Could the childminder have prevented William dying? Answering this question would help us in our grief; the mystery of SIDS only adds to the pain of losing your son.

Every day since my son passed away has been a long emotional journey, that has just begun. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of my son and how much I miss him. I believe the hardest part to let go of is finding your child lying lifeless in there bed and there is nothing you as a parent can do for them. You feel so helpless, and worthless. You as a parent should be able to fix all that is wrong with your child. If any one wants to talk you can write me at lydajr@sonetcom.com. Thank you for listening. Linda

Comments: I think this is a great chance to get people together who have gone through such a tragedy. It makes you feel less singled out by the hands of fate. I lost a little baby girl to SIDS on March 29, 1995. She was only 2 and a half months old. Her name was Jasmine Barakat. I've missed her terribly. I have had another baby since losing her, but its not easy!! ........Jena

Comments: I have another thing to add to my past comments below. I knew that my nephew Jordan was going to die at a very young age the first day I held him at the hospital. Everytime that I held him and looked in his eyes, they just talked to me and told me that his visit was going to be a short one and his death unexplained. I never told anyone this because I did not want to worry them, but now I live with the knowlege that may be I could have done some thing. I do not think of myself as psyhic by any means but I am wondering why I knew that this was coming. Was it baby Jordan who told me?

Comments: Southeast Georgia. How I wish there had been a SIDS support group 30 years ago! As I was reading the First Person stories, tears were streaming down my face. I was especially touched by Debbie Gemmill's entry entitled, "Please Could You Just Listen?" Time eases the pain, but we never forget. November 5th would have been my baby April's 31st birthday.

Comments: We lost our percious son, David, in Sept. 6, 1994. He was 2mos 3days old, healthy, breastfeed, back sleeping baby of 18 lbs. We are willing to share how we have made it so far and help if we can. We live in Lake County, California, and do not have a support group near us. We have one daughter born before our son, another son since (now 11 1/2 mos. old), and another do in June 1997. Love find places that pass on information instead of hurtful falsehoods.

Comments: I think I signed on before, but I am not sure. A couple my husband and I are friends with lost their son who was very close to my daughters age. I was looking for answers, I found that there were a lot of people looking for answers, many had never lost a loved one to Sids. I now know there are people looking. I believe we will find the answers and a way to prevent Sids. PARENTS, IT IS NOT YOUR FAULT!!It is a defect of Mother nature. Please read on, you are not alone.

Comments: I work in Toronto, Ontario. Tomorrow I am doing a funeral for a three month old victim of sids. She is the sixth sids child I am burying this year. I keep in touch with the parent(s) as much as my time permits. I have been relying mainly on instinct, mostly keeping my mouth shut and my ears and arms open. I have picked up some useful info from the local sids foundation but still feel there is much to learn so that I can be more sensitive to these courageous people. Your site will hopefully provide some useful information. Would appreciate hearing from you. If I can be of any help please do not hesitate to ask. Later...L.

Comments: My son, Schaefer Michael Clark died of SIDS on Oct. 11 of this year. He was nine months old. I have found some comfort in the words spoken here, especially Nancy Eckert, who posted an article on a page called FIRST PERSON that every SIDS parent should relate to family and friends, and to Steve and Diana Hintz, for checking all this out when I was afraid to. Steve and Di, you have been a light in my darkness, shine on.

Comments: I wrote a paper on SIDs many years ago while conducting research for the government in other areas. I suspect that sid's is a condition of oxy-iono poisoning caused by loss of two electrons from the oxygen molecule. It is now called positive ion poisoning. The majority of the population is sensitive to it, however infants are especially effected. Anybody find this interesting. mdlee@telusplanet.net Director of "The North American Research Associates"
