Stacy who was 32 1/2 weeks pregnant went to the St. Cloud, MN Hospital on 9-9-07 because of heavy vaginal bleeding. Stacy was told from a nurse that it was looking like we were going to have a newborn baby that day. We were told that tests showed there was not an abruption. A doctor told Stacy that because of lung development in the baby, he decided to not deliver the baby that night and gave her a drug to help the babies lungs. Stacy continued to have large blood clots, and bleeding throughout the next three days. Our baby girl was finally delivered on 9-12-07. Stacy had planned to have her tubes tied as long as everything turned out ok, which her doctor said did. So they did the surgery on her. Our baby girl was 5 pounds, 4 ounces. and appeared very healthy. Our baby breastfeed for the first 4 days. make it a couple of times during the first 4 days. On the fifth day I informed my husband that the baby had completely stopped eating and that the hospital started tube feeding the baby. Our baby started not digesting the food from the tube feedings, and had strange stools according to nurses and I. A nurse had informed a doctor of this, but the doctor wasnt concerned. This went on until 9-19-07 when a nurse noticed bloody stools coming from our baby. An x-ray was ordered and showed air bubbles in the babies intestines consistant with Necrotizing Enterocolitis. Feedings were than stopped and done through i.v. Our babies belly began to grow larger and larger everyday. We informed doctors but were told the baby is going to be fine. On 9-30-07 I received a call from a doctor that had recently began his shift, and was told the baby was being transferred to Fairview University Medical Center because of a liver abcess found on an x-ray. I went to the NICU unit at St Cloud and asked to see an X-ray of what they had discovered, I then asked to see the past 3 days. This x-ray finding was shown on every x-ray I looked at. I asked why they didnt notice it earlier and they didnt know why. We packed up and the family stayed at the ronald mcdonald house next to the hospital. Hospital staff told us that the liver abcess was actually liquid that was being leaked out from the babies intestines having a hole in them (perforation) this means this was going on for at least 3 days. We later found out that once this intestinal fluid leaks out into the bloodstream, it is fatal in nearly all cases. Surgery was done on our baby the following day. Two inches of the intestines were removed and the intestines were sowed on the outside of the babies belly to heal before they could be put back together. Doctors informed us that they also were going to do a surgery called PDA surgery which is a simple surgery of closing a heart valve which would help recovery of the intestinal surgery that was needed because of the Necrotizing Enterocolitis. A few days after the surgery we were informed that it was confirmed from blood tests of the presence of the intestinal fluid contaminating the blood. We were told it had been in the babies blood for at least a week because it takes at least that long for it to be in the blood and show up on a blood test. This infection caused deadly blood clots, including one in the babies head, one in a main vein behind g the heart and several in the babies neck. Our baby was on 4 medications just to maintain her blood pressure from dropping. Doctors told us she was going to die after they tried a medication that was supposed to help disolve blood clots. They wanted to take her off support. We fought with them to keep trying. They did for an extra week. They then said they could not do anything else. I called the Mayo clinic in Rochester, MN and explained everything to them and they confirmed that nothing more could be done. Support was discontinued on 10-24-07 and our baby died in our arms. On 10-26-07 we had her funeral at Dingmanns funeral home in Sauk Rapids, MN

Hi hun,
Thankyou so much for the message you left on my little girls page, it so helps to know you're not on your own.

These are my tiny footprints
so perfect and so small
these tiny footprints
never touched the ground at all.
Not one tiny footprint
For now I have my wings
These tiny footprints
Were meant for other things
You will hear my tiny footprints
In the patter of the rain
Gentle drops like angel tears
Of joy and not of pain
You will see my tiny footprints
In each butterflies lazy dance
I'll let you know I’m with you
If you give me just a chance
You will hear my tiny footprints
In the rustle of the leaves
I'll whisper names into the wind
And call each one that grieves
Most of all these footprints
Are found in mummy's heart
Cause even though I’m gone
We will never truly part
Love you Tori

Wishing your Mom a peaceful B-day
I know celebrating any day is the furthest thing from a Mother's mind when she is spending her days missing her sweet little baby. I just wanted to wish her a blessed day on her birthday and may it be a day filled with peace. My heart goes out to you Stacy, Dan & Kids, it's a tough road to tred. Blow her plenty of hugs and kisses.
Bless you Angel.

As I look into Kyley's eyes I just wish your mom could feel what I am feeling. You are one month younger than Kyley and the two of you would have best of friends I know it. Your mommy use to do daycare for Kyley when you were still in her belly. I feel so many emotions when you or your mom come to mind. I feel like your mom and I were just getting to know each other again and now we have drifted apart again. I miss her and I want her to know that I am always here. I feel quilty for when your mommy started doing daycare for me when you were still in the hospital. I feel like I took presious time away from the two of you. I will forever feel quilty about that. I just wish you would have gotten a chance to know Kyley I know you two would be rolling around the floor together right now fighting over toys! Oh, honey you are so missed and loved!!!
