I lost my daughter 12/9/07. I only have a few photos and NOT professional ones. I treasure them. Most people don't understand that but when it's all you will ever have of your beautiful little girl it becomes one of the most important things you have. I wish that I had known about Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep when I lost my daughter. When you look you feel a sadness and a pride and a happiness at the same time, feeling like your forgetting hurts more

Youre correct, and thank you for being mature about it. Its crazy what people will write on these walls, and even though you know they just dont understand, how they have the nerve to be disrespectful to these parents, families, etc......these babies......Dont be crude about it, msg someone privately that is on the page, and ask them what you want to know.....Ive done it instead of saying something "possibly" wrong.....Tho Id NEVER say something rude!!!

[Martha Noel]

Thats awesome!!!!! Ive just recently applied for Assistant to Photographer, and Community "Liason" (cant remember the exact title...) Every time I come across something about NILMDTS I KNOW I did the right thing. I too, am an anglebaby mom who was given nothing, not even the sex of my baby when he(my belief) was born too soon. I still have my memories, only because of the NEGATIVITY Ive attached to them. Not the love that I should have had!!!

I am a volunteer photographer for NILMDTS. I was very apprehensive at first like many people, but now I find that I am changing lives and wouldn't have it any other way. I get to document their last moments with their child. They trust me to make the images/videos beautiful keepsakes. It's a very deep and personal moment that will always be special to me. I am proud to be a part of this and encourage everyone to donate or participate if they can. They need all of us.

Who doesn't like this!? I had pictures done when I lost my son shortly after birth, and they are amazing!

To those beautiful people who make this service availlable. God Bless all of you!

[EmmyGurl523]

How awful to have something alive in you, growing, then it all ending just when it's supposed to begin. God bless all babies who become angels. <33 A lost baby is not something to move on from, these people are making sure they will never be forgotten.

it may be unsettling to you, but its isn't your child...if it were, you'd want to keep that memory

[stop00hammertime]

this is really sad! but i have to be honest it's a little unsettling seeing pictures of a dead body, but i guess to the parents they aren't thinking about that.

oh tears..... bless there people!
