I am going to keep this short, as at the moment I can barely see the screen from the tears filling my eyes. Our little man Ethan was born on 20/11/10 after a growth scan two days earlier identified that i had developed Polyhydromnios and Ethan was showing signs of Hydrops Fetalis. I was 30 weeks gestation when diagnosed, Ethan was delivered at 30+2 weighing 4lb 8.5oz. We were warned that the prognosis was extremely poor. If he remained inutero he would surely die within the next 48hours and if we delivered it would almost certainly follow the same outcome, but at least that would give him some chance.
We have endured the longest few days of our lives and right now I just don't know how I can find a way forward. Ethan passed away surrounded by all of his family on 22/11/10 at 6:45pm as his little heart just couldn't take anymore. We still don't know why this has happened, most of the tests both myself and Ethan have had could still take many weeks.
It is still too early for me to go into every little part of our horrendous journey at this stage, so I will try to come back soon. I just can't deal with this at the moment.
We got two days with our gorgeous little boy, we got to hold him, talk to him and feel him squeeze our finger. We love you so so much and will never ever forget you xxxx
