So, what of rainbows?

What does it mean.  Why would I be so concerned about them?

The term rainbow baby, is the baby you have after your loss. They are what you get after the hurricane of loss. Out of the storm comes a rainbow.

Do they replace? Never.

Do they heal you? How could they not. My two boys I have here with me heal me daily.  I wanted a baby before Xavier’s limited time here, and I still do.

Will a rainbow help me forget my pain? NOTHING could ever let me forget him…EVER.

Will I be all better if I have a rainbow? Really? What a question (and I can assure you, it has been said) I will never be OK with Xavier being dead.

Do I want to try again? More than anything in the world…
