Yes, I was going to ask her name also. God bless Nori and Peace for all of you. Know that God knows and understands everything you all are going through. You can't understand why, but ask Him to remain close with you. Christ will always reveal himself to those who seek him. Seek not answers, but love.

Very sorry for your loss. We lost a child at 10 days of age and saw Khris Ford at Austin center for grief and loss. I am not sure if she still practices but I am sure they have qualified staff. Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

My wife has a lot of connections in this field. What area are you in? If you haven't found anyone yet I might be able to give names based on area.
Pflugerville, but anyone in North Austin area would work


My wife echoed the grief and loss center. This is right up their alley. She also said you can look up providers in your area on psychology today.

Crying for you as I post this. I lost a son years ago. I found strength in my Aggie family and in my church family. So so sorry for your loss.

There are no words. My heart goes out to you and your wife.

If you are still looking for counseling recs, I highly recommend Nicole Fitzpatrick at Hyde Park Counseling Center.

For the last two weeks we have been blessed with family who have been stopping by, keeping us company, fed, and taking care of all of our daily minutia as we deal with arrangements and counseling. I think we are good but thank you so much for offering help (chipotle as well.)

Thank you.

Agreed, hope all is well with you and your wife. My e-mail is in my profile if a random Austin Aggie can be of any assistance such as what wargograw and jorts offered.

I cannot imagine your pain. Another potential listener for each of you: a Stephen Minister. Ask if your church has a Stephen Ministry program. They aren't counselors (you probably need that, too), but they are trained listeners. Your Aggie family cares.

Ah hey, thanks guys. Didn't know this thread was still getting attention. My wife and I have been seeing a counselor and even though the last few months were some of the hardest times of our lives, I think we are beginning to see and feel hopeful again for the future.

Our family and friends have been phenomenal support for us and my wife has proven to be the strongest woman I have ever known. I want to thank you for your continued thoughts and prayers.

Although it can be difficult for me sometimes to look at, I'd like to share a picture with you all:

I posted this in the baseball game thread for one of the games against Mississippi state. This was the outfit we chose to bury her in.

We also started a scholarship fund in her name and raised over $16k. The scholarships will be given to children who were students of my wife while she was pregnant with Nori.

I still miss her every day. Rest in Peace, my sweet Eleanor.

T&P for you and your family. We lost a child in 1999 due to miscarriage. We still include little Miguel in our prayers. We know that one day we will all be together in God's house. Take care!

You and your wife seem to be doing great. I do not know you but I am proud of you!

One of the most powerful things someone said to me when I was dealing with life was "I am here with you and will continue to be with you." We as Aggies are here with you. If you are having a bad day pick one of us and send a message.
