10 months ago I gave birth to my third baby,a boy name Deven Tyler. Although I knew at 5 months gestations he wouldnt live it didnt minimize the intense pain when he earned his angel wings only minutes after his birth. I DO MY BEST to cope by doing things to honor and remember him. Donating in his name,sharing his life with other parents with babies like him,sending balloons into the sky to where he is,he's on many memorial walls on the internet,I told his whole life at a candle ceramony and these things help me cope. He wasnt just another infant loss,he will always be a huge part of this world bc of what he's shown me. :)

There is the option of therapy or conselling, which will be your best option. You could also just pretend that it's a dirty little secret and that it never happened. However years from now it will resurface and you then need more intense therapy. But the option is yours. I'm not saying go all out and get some fancy doctor and check yourself into a hospital (unless needed), byut work through it either with your friend or with someone. But DO NOT ignore the problem!

I really haven't lost anyone close to me but I did have a miscarriage 2 years ago, I cried for weeks anytime I saw a baby or pregnant mother. I coped by being able to go to my husband and he would hold me until I felt better. The first couple days afterwards he would just hold me and let me cry myself to sleep. I don't know what I would do with out him, and I know that if anything even more tragic were to happen to me he will always be my safe harbor.

I was in the backseat with my two year old baby brother, we were just leaving the parking lot. My mom had given him a cracker to try. She asked me if he liked it or not, I turned to him and he was having a seizure. He had swallowed the cracker whole and it had blocked his airway. He was turning blue and his eyes were rolled up in his head. It took me about six years to finally get up the nerve to sit in the back seat with him, because I was scared to death he'd have another seizure. To this day I won't allow him to eat anything in the car. I haven't exactly coped with it, I've just tried my best to forget it.

The 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake in Santa Cruz CA.
Staying by a ruined building, waiting day after day for them to dig out a friend... I still cry when I think about it, or walk by the memorial for her... took them a week to find her body... it bounced oddly while they wheeled her corpse away... more of the story below.
I was at a friends house - a little pumpkin fell off a door jam and hit me on the head - I took a bus home, and could see a huge fire burning in my neighborhood - my apartment was in ruins. I went through the neighborhood heading for the Pacific Garden Mall telling people to turn off the gas in their homes. One home was a flaming wreck from a gas fire already. The streets and side walks were mangled. The mall was in ruins.
A friend of mine was buried in the rubble of one of the buildings, and my housemate was nearly killed as well (the woman standing next to her was hit by a support beam).
My friends and I stayed at the area where the building collapsed on her... a friend gave me some string cheese to eat... we hugged, and we argued with the rescue crews, all of us volunteering to help try and dig her out. Oddly, my parents found out I was still alive because a family friend saw me on the news arguing with one of the rescue leaders...
I still think about it - and remember walking through the Pacific Garden Mall before it was sealed off, water pouring down buildings from broken pipes... crushed cars... rubble everywhere...
