The site you have created in memory of your son is beautiful. Thank you for sharing it with us. Each page brought tears and comfort to me.

Im sending you all my love my thoughts and best wishes, my sis' lost her baby at full term and I myself have just lost (on the 17th Feb. 04) my lil' one at nearly 4 months. It's so hard, I feel lost without my bump. You're fantastic and I whole heartily admire you.

God Bless Thomas xxxxxxxxxx

Dear Mother and Father of Baby Thomas...

I was just so moved by your beautiful tribute to your son and all the wonderful support that came your way after your loss...First of all, allow me to extend my deepest sympathies and understanding at this time. We lost our Daniel Zachary 27 years ago on November 5th...so we know the dark valley you are transversing right now...

There hasn't been a day that has gone by that we haven't felt our son with us. Especially when his baby sister got married in October. I wrote a poem that I felt he wanted me to give to her, and she was very moved by it...In it, he tells her he has always watched over her through the years and that he now has another soul to guide. He reminds her that he too would be standing up with the family as she married. My daughter was very touched as she grew up loving him...

Now, his brother next to him is about to marry and hopefully, Danny will inspire me to write once again.. I say this so you know that Thomas too will grow in wisdom age and grace in heaven...WE are grateful to have been given the privilege of being Danny's parents if only for a little while.. May you be comforted and strengthened by the lessons of deep love Thomas taught you by his brief presence in your life...

God Bless and keep you both.

Cessie

Your site is beautiful and I would like to thank you for trying to help others in your grief. My daughter Alston was born still on 1-15-04. She and your Thomas will always be in our prayers.

Our son 'Ethan Thomas Treharne' was stillborn on Feb 3rd 2004.

On what should have been one of the many "Great days" of your lives we just wanted to stop by and tell you how much we love you and how sorry we are. xxx

You're all in our thoughts and hearts and dreams, especially today. xxx

We miss Thomas too. Sorry we didn't get to meet him. xxx

Hope that the future holds many brighter days for you. xxx

All our love K & M x x x

Hi there,

Thanks for bravely sharing your beautiful son Thomas with us. I am the UK director of the national stillbirth society, and so many of your feelings are familiar to me - Isobel was stillborn on 29th January 1998.

If you ever want to get in touch (and anyone else reading this) just email me at the address above.

God Bless

I am so very sorry for your loss. As a grieving mother myself I can feel both your love for your sweet son as well as your pain. If you ever need to talk, I am just an email away.

God Bless You

Just wanted to say your story touched me. Hope everyday gets better! I will pray for you!

God bless you both!

Like you I too have lost my precious baby boy. He was born on February 6, 2004. A lot of the things that you have written reminded me of my son. I was only 21 weeks along and my water broke caused by the Cervical Cerclage that I had a week earlier. It helps to read of others that have gone through what I have gone through but doesn't make the heartache any easier. I miss him everyday and understand the pain that you are going through.

This a truly beautiful site. I lost my son Samuel aged 7 1/2 weeks and found doing his website during his life and afterwards a great comfort.

Take care, Hels

Dear Mr and Mrs. Dixon,

What a wonderful site to a truly loved and deserving angel. It's not until we go through something like this that we realize how many people there are out there with similar stories. We lost our daughter in December 2003 to Stillbirth.We still have good and bad days but I find comfort in reading peoples stories. Many thanks for sharing your story with us.

Love N Hugs

Thank you for sharing your site and your son with us, you are amazing people. I am just so sorry you lost Thomas. You are in my thoughts.

Love Joanne

Thankyou for sharing such a sad story with us I was deeply moved and in awe of you and your husband's bravery. I suffered a miscarriage in Mar 03 at 14 weeks gestation. I had a horrible labour which surprised me greatly as in my ignorance I didn't think that is how a miscarriage occurred. Both my partner and I have suffered greatly and like you would give anything for things to have turned out differently. Thankyou again for sharing Thomas with us.

God bless you both, such a sad story. Take heart that your little angels are watching over you from heaven and will always be with you in spirit.

I am so very sorry for the loss of your precious Thomas. Your story brought me to tears.

God Bless you and your family.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I too have had 2 daughters born sleeping and know just how devastating it can be. Be strong and take comfort in each other and your shared memories. If you ever need to talk with someone who's been there please feel free to contact me. Thank you for sharing your precious memories with us. Incidentally I lost my little girl on December 21st 2003 and we had her funeral the day you gave birth to Thomas so perhaps she was there waiting to play with him.

Vicky and Magnus,

This is a beautiful site and full of the love you have for your special little man. I have cried reading the site and smiled at what you have achieved. I also want to take this opportunity to say thankyou for allowing me to add my 'little one'. With love and heartfelt gratitude

So sorry for your loss. I was so moved by this website and can not think of a more wonderful way to remember your precious ones. Best wishes for your future.

My thoughts are with you xx

My heart aches with yours as I can feel the tremendous love that you have for your precious son Thomas as I read with tears through your site. Thank you for visiting our daughter Amber's site ( www.geocities.com/ambers_footprints/ )

The loss of a child is the hardest thing in the world...

when you lose your parents you lose your past
but when you lose your child you lose your future.

Hold onto each other as you go through these difficult days... may God comfort you & give you peace in your hearts day by day.

Hello. I just happened upon your site. I'm so very sorry for the loss of your little boy. My partner and I lost our baby girl Giselle a few hours before she was born. Everything with the pregnancy and the baby were fine, the morning Jenny went into labor, we were sent home to rest as Jenny was barely dilated and she had not ruptured her membranes. A few short hours later once labor really started, Jenny's belly was checked and there was no heartbeat.

I don't think I will ever get over how robbed I feel. I'm so sorry you did not get to hold your son. My heart goes out to you for that. We were lucky to get to spend about 24 hours with Giselle and were able to get pictures.

Please feel free to view my weblog at: http://www.toastandbanana.com/giselle

I am so sorry for your loss, you have done a wonderful thing in memory of Thomas. I praise you for that.

All my love,
Sabrina

My poor darlings, I have lost two little girls. The pain is very easy to remember, and the memory of little angels never far away. I'm so very sorry for your loss, your wee boy is in my heart too now and real to me and present. I send my thoughts and sweet wishes to you all.

Here is a kiss for your little lad,
Thomas.

This is a lovely site and a credit to you and your son. He is an angel now and who knows, he might have hooked up with my little boy who went to heaven on December 2nd 2003.

I am so sorry for your loss. I know all too well the pain of losing a precious child. I feel very deeply for you that you don't have some photos of little Thomas but understand too at the time our lives are in such turmoil, we just don't think!! We wouldn't have had 1 single photo had it not been for the SCBU nurses. This is a beautiful tribute to your special little boy. My thoughts are with you.

I am very sorry for your loss. I lost my daughter Taylor to SIDS. She was 3 months and 5 days old. My heart aches every day for her and everyone who has had to suffer the enduring loss of their child. No matter how tiny or big. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Our family sends their deepest condolences. If you would like to visit my angels site the web address is
www.wiggins-dave-angie.familymoment.com/
It is a temporary site as I am in the process of designing a special site for my lil angel.

The love you have for your wee, precious Thomas is so beautiful. Your words have touched my heart in such a special way. I, too, lost a son to stillbirth at 25 weeks. He was beautiful and perfect, just like your Thomas.

There was a time when I thought my heart would never mend, but the years have given me a gentleness and peace, and I know that this same peace will come to your heart, too.

My prayers and thoughts are with you. Thank you for sharing so much of your heart and your precious son, Thomas.

Love,

Vicky,

I cried buckets after reading little Thomas's website. I'm so sorry you had to go through that. I myself went through a miscarriage at 10 weeks (last August) and that was more than I could bear. You are truly a strong woman and I admire your courage. ((Hugs)) to you and your DH. And may you have a beautiful and healthy baby to hold in your arms soon.

I don't know you but I just wanted to say what a beautiful website and a lovely memorial to your son. I saw the link on babyworld in the LAB forum what a terribly cruel way to lose him, so late in your pregnancy, you must be going through utter hell.

I hope you and your husband find the strength to come through this together and if you decide to try for another child I wish you all the luck and health in the world for you and the baby.

Hugs and deepest sympathies skyar x

A beautiful tribute for a beautiful baby. Don't ever forget you held Thomas close and snug for over 31 weeks, he will always know unfailing love from his special Mummy and Daddy. Our first baby Madeleine ran away to heaven aged 29 days, and although we miss her terribly every day, we are proud parents, just like you.

Much love, Mel

Hi,
I found your site through your posts on Babyworld where I post also after the death of my daughter Lydia on the 21st Dec 03, she was 5 days old.

Your sites lovely, a really nice tribute to your little Thomas. Life's so unfair isn't it?

Much love Em x

Dear Mrs. and Mr. Dixon,

I was very touched by your story about your baby boy Thomas. He was born 8 days before my baby was. I was only 22 and a half weeks. One morning around 2:00 am I started having contractions which to me felt like cramps. They just were very intense and periodical. And then I had to go use the restroom and during that time I had to vomit. At that precise moment, my water broke. I had a hemorrhage right after which lead me to the Emergency Room. They laid me down and performed a pelvic exam. After the exam, they gave me an ultrasound, which informed me that my baby's heartbeat was weak. A couple of minute's had passed and I could tell by the look on the doctor's face that this was not good news. She told me that my membranes had ruptured premature. She explained to me that when this happens the baby is no longer protected by the "bag of waters" which put me and my baby at high risk for infection. Because I was already in labour I had to wait until I was ready to give birth. His little body hadn't really developed lungs yet and there wasn't anything anyone or anything any machine could do to help my baby. Unfortunately, my baby was breached and I was only dilated 4 cm. It was the most extreme pain I had ever endured. I had a chance to hold my baby. He was so small and light. He weighed about 550 grams. My heart goes out to you and your husband. But realistically, miscarriages and stillbirths happen commonly. We just have to pray that everything will go well the "next time".

God Bless!!! Maria - Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA

we lost our girls last year so can sympathise. Your site is beautiful and a wonderful tribute to your son.

Take care X

I am so sorry for your loss. You have created such a beautiful and informative site in memory of Thomas. I am enduring the difficult journey of losing a child also. My son, Michael passed away in August when he was just 13 days old. I have the same little angel you have with my son's name on it = ) Thank you for sharing your story with me.

You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

God bless, Michele

Hi there, I can only imagine your pain. I lost my little boy at 17 weeks gestation for no reason in Dec 03. It is undoubtedly the hardest thing that anyone can go through but I only hope that we will all be rewarded sometime again. I pray that my little boy Sam is playing with Thomas and all the other little angels...

I first want to apologize for taking so long to sign your book. You visited my angel son Will's site and left me such a beautiful entry in his book...and I wanted to meet your precious Thomas.

I am so very sorry for your loss. Your site is just wonderful. So full of all your love for your sweet son. Your painting just struck me, somewhere deep inside. It was beautiful and heartbreaking all at the same time. It was very wonderfully done, and such a beautiful way to express your feelings.

You are in my thoughts and prayers. If you ever need to talk, I am just an email away.

God Bless

I know it is very difficult for you. I myself am going through the same pain. My doctor doesn't know the cause of my stillbirth but I am happy knowing that he is with the LORD and so is your baby. God knows and hears our every cry and will definitely bless us. Just keep on praying and believe that one-day we too will be united with our baby. Till then continue your mission here on earth and ask GOD to fulfill all your dreams. He will definitely answer our prayers.

Hugs for you both, and a special hug for Thomas.

With love from me and my angel, Archie, died aged one week 4.2.02-11.2.02 xxxxxxxxx

I hope you find comfort during this very sad time. You are in my prayers. I would like to think that all our angels are together in a beautiful place but with us always.

God Bless you xx

Very moved by your sad story.

This is the most wonderful website I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing your beautiful Thomas with the world. I hope you are able to find the peace you seek.

Sincerely,

Mr. & Mrs. Dixon,

your tribute to your darling angel Thomas is so beautiful, it has touched me deeply. I think you are so brave to share such a sad story, and I thank you both for helping my husband and I to realise our own loss (Precious C lost 27/05/03 and Sweet E lost 21/11/03). We wish you joy always.

God bless you both and your darling Thomas,

kindest regards, Chris.

I came across your website by accident when searching for a still birth register which may or may not exist with my sons name on it. As I can relate so much to your story, I felt compelled to respond. I was 18 and he was 29 weeks gestation.

Always, at this time of year, for the past 9, he is very present in my thoughts and although I still shed some tears and to some strange degree feel a yearning to know where he is and that he's okay, the pain is less. You are very brave and I hope as time passes your aching lessens as mine did for your

' Tiny flower, lent not given,
to bud on earth and bloom in heaven '.

For Vicky and Magnus - A small message from a friend who can only imagine the heartache and despair endured by you lately. Be assured that my thoughts are with you at all times, and I hope you come through this and prosper. This website is a fitting and beautiful tribute to a much loved and much mourned child.

Wishing you well, and thinking of you, Mark

I added my son Kellan to your memorial wall this week. Thank you for doing this. It is GREAT!

God Bless.

I know you only from Deviant Art, but can not ignore what has happened. My deepest condolences to you and your family. I did not know until now that you had a web site dedicated to your son. I cried when I read the story, and wish you only happy things in the future. I know no words can ease the pain, but hopefully they help a little.

My best, Valerie aka berkette-smiles

Hi Vicky and Magnus,
