This page is dedicated to my son, Christian, who died in 1993 because he was born too early. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about him at least once. I would do anything to have him here with me. For the rest of my life there will be a part of me that is empty.
When I look back at that time in my life, I was young and stupid. I wish I had known more about pregnancy. I wish I had had someone to talk to, or at least been brave enough to talk to my parents sooner than I did.
If there is anything that I have learned, and I can't stress this enough, please get medical attention as soon as you think you are pregnant. Actually, you should start seeing a doctor as soon as you become involved in an intimate relationship, and no matter how scared you are, there must be someone you can talk to.
I was too afraid to talk to my parents. If I had, I realize now that I probably would have had the proper medical attention I needed, but I was too scared of them yelling, and so I put off telling them. I realize now that this was wrong. My parents were strict, but my son's life should have been enough reason for me to look beyond my parents anger and disappointment. Eventually they would have gotten over it. Please, if anybody ever reads this that is pregnant and scared, please talk to someone. You could even talk to me if you like.
