Our baby girl died in our arms in March. She lived for 36 hours and once we decided on palliative care instead of treatment things got a lot less scary and a lot more loving. The nurses, midwives, consultants and support workers who looked after us all were absolutely beautiful. The way they loved on her like she was one of their own is something I will never forget. They are the reason I'm going back to education to hopefully become a midwife now. 💞

I'm a nurse and worked in labor and delivery. There were times when I worked in NICU and cared for tiny babies. Some babies were sick, some needed to gain weight and others were going to die. One night I cared for a baby boy who was born with multiple severe genetic defects and was slowly dying. I held him and fed him and just loved him. His family didn't visit, I guess they had already mourned his death. So the nurses became his family. He had clubbed feet and die ears and kidneys that were deformed and barely functioning. I told him as I held him, that we're going to love you until you die. It was very hard!!!

This is beautiful and breaking my heart. My water broke at 26 weeks. Spent 6 months in the NICU, came home with feeding tube, oxygen, trached with a ventilator. It was the loneliest, hardest, longest years of my life. But he lived. He was off everything and trach closed at age 2. He is a brilliant funny creative healthy miracle today at 12 years old. I watched families who did not get to bring their babies home. Every day. We got to know each other, grandparents, siblings. We rejoiced together. We cried together. This brought so many powerful emotions flooding back to me.... And I feel selfish somehow because my story had a happier ending. God bless you, families and staff.

I wished this program was around for my Mum. Her baby was stillborn in 1952 (approx). She grieved all her life for that baby and blamed herself. She never got to see the baby or hold her. Or have a funeral she was dumped in a common grave with similar babies like she never existed. My mum’s heart broke, literally. She was never the same even though she had me and my bro later. She blamed herself. It wasn’t until I was about 42 and was finishing a midwifery section no of nursing did I realise how her baby died. It was placenta previa where the placenta covers the cervix and gets peeled away as the cervix opens and stops the supply of blood and oxygen to her baby. Now why didn’t they tell her that? She wasn’t a stupid woman. She live her whole life blaming herself when the reality is NOTHING except a modern c section could have saved her BEFORE labour commenced. In those days there was no ultrasounds to know where the placenta was. There were no treasures, no keepsakes just Dad telling her to go back to work in 2 weeks like a life lost never existed. I’m glad no one had to suffer like Mum because tragedies do happen sometimes. And no one should go through 50 years of blaming them self for the loss of their baby. Mum was happy after I told her but she died soon after. I still think it gave her some peace to know what happened and how. And why. THANKYOU doctors and nurses of nicu palliative care.

It was the same with my grandmother, she had 3 babies who were born and didn't live long, her first baby was born with the intestines on the outside, she lived 3 days the doctor wrapped her up and chucked her on the bed and told my grandmother to leave it. 2nd baby still born and 3rd baby lived couple of hours. Although my grandmother went on to have healthy children she never forgot her 1st borns and she carried the guilt it was her fault and the babies were taken away. I can't imagine the pain your mum went through but she was able to have peace knowing what happened to her baby wasn't her fault. 2005 I had a beautiful baby girl born very poorly and she died in my arms with dignity and I had amazing care.

However, it meant that she got to hold her baby, alive...and bathe her and kiss her and love ON her...all things she could not do, while our sweet Amanda was in the NICU isolate. Her precious body had simply been through too much during her 13 days on earth. Embracing death changed everything for us. Hugs to everyone.

This is an incredibly beautiful presentation of what must be one of the excruciatingly pain-filled and sorrowful experiences in a couple's life. It presents with such clarity and tenderness all the people involved, starting with the parents and going through every person in this amazing palliative care team at Johns Hopkins NiCU. I teach about how to make friends with death with adults--usually older adults--to help them accept, honor and embrace their mortality. But this--this fine video brings to us to this whole other end of the spectrum--accepting and even embracing the end of a brand-new child's life. Thank you, Johns Hopkins, and may all of you as well as the parents on this video be models for people in neonatal medicine everywhere. You are all a great blessing.

I would need to hold my baby too. This is amazingly. Forty five years ago, doctors told parents NOT to see the preemie Really, a baby born too soon & not breathing was taken from the parents & doctors refused to let them see or hold their child, telling them they would recover "sooner & more easily". What a huge mistake.

It takes a village to raise a child, it should take a village to get through the loss of a child. I almost lost my teenage grandson and it was an entire team that got us through it, from the PICU Drs and nurses to the Child Life specialist and chaplain. They answered every single question and if we didn't understand, they kept on explaining until we did. The chaplains prayed with us every day, the social worker was arranging rooms at the McDonald's house. Medicine should be a team job and it shouldn't be only at Children's hospitals but every hospital. Helping these families through the most difficult thing they'll probably ever go through is a hard job. I'm so grateful for the medical professionals who decide this is how they're going to practice medicine. There should be as much dignity and grace in dying as there is in living. The babies and their families deserve to have both, even if it's for a moment

The Hopkins NICU is an incredible place that's filled with joy and sorrow. I realized how lucky I was to have strong, huge babies compared with rest of the patients. Even though my little guys had complications and were born early (almost 32 weeks weighing just about 3 lbs each), I saw preemies who had just gained enough to be 1 lb. I saw the staff be joyous whenever babies graduated to the regular unit or to home, and these same people cried with the parents of the sickest and dying babies. They are very special people indeed.

There is nothing more important to someone's life than being able to make them comfortable and leave their loved ones with peace and dignity, whatever age they be. It is a selfish decision to not let them go, we're keeping them here for us. My mum had been on a respirator for 10 days, she was fully functional, knew what was happening, knew she couldn't breathe on her own. My mum would never have forgiven my dad or me if we let her just lay there and loose her dignity. We were able to say goodbye to my mum, she wrote on a pad that she loved us and she said thank you. In my humble opinion this is the most caring thing you can do for someone you love.

I can't even imagine losing a child. This has gotta be one of the hardest things a person could possibly go through. Part of the reason I don't plan on biological children is because I run a higher risk of miscarriage or stillbirth due to my PCOS. At least I KNOW that I run that risk and can shape my plans in accordance with that, but these parents had no idea of what was coming, and that's gotta be the hardest part. You're perfectly healthy, your pregnancy seems perfectly normal, when all of a sudden you get the worst news a parent could possibly get. These parents are so incredibly strong for pushing through despite their losses. I'm not sure if I could ever be that strong.

They were so amazing and caring to my whole family, and made it all so stress free. We didn't have to ask for help with anything. They set everything up. Explained our options. ❤️

I found out I was pregnant when I lost a tiny girl only still developing I had to get out no scan I couldn't bear it. A few days later I felt unwell and went back to fo find out there was a tiny boy still fighting my emotions took over every emotion I could think of at once but her face changed while scanning with a thumping heart and that terror feeling I jumped up I told her stop wanted to run. I just knew. He wasn't going to live either along with him being very weak my placenta was too low. They said days but my son had other ideas. I felt him move even grew a small bump lucks held on for 2 more months. My placenta moved no need for surgery and I got 2 days wi5h my boy born sleeping but so perfect. I was besotted with his perfect teeny tiny hands. The twins would be 9 July 4th. They were my miracle as I was told I couldn't have children dew to chronic endometriosis.. love to everyone who goes through this and to my brother who's son was born sleeping and to my step sister Michelle now in heaven herself with her 2 sons b9rn sleeping. Now all our little ones play in the sky's together 😇😇😇😇😇

John Hopkins Hospital is the best ever, they saved my son's life along with the University Hospital my son was born with Cystic Fibrosis his father had the gene and so did I. But i could make this a book but won't, you all just need to know they are the best hospital in the world. If they can be fixed they will be, and if not, they will try like anything to get other specialists to come in to compare, to what they might be missing, more than likely he will leave there with eyes wide open and above all many prayers, God needs to be in it as well❤

I'm a nurse and worked in labor and delivery. There were times when I worked in NICU and cared for tiny babies. Some babies were sick, some needed to gain weight and others were going to die. One night I cared for a baby boy who was born with multiple severe genetic defects and was slowly dying. I held him and fed him and just loved him. His family didn't visit, I guess they had already mourned his death. So the nurses became his family. He had clubbed feet and die ears and kidneys that were deformed and barely functioning. I told him as I held him, that we're going to love you until you die. It was very hard!!!

My best friend lost her baby at 24 wks back in 03. She left her husband because in her mind it was his fault their daughter died. She didn't talk to me for almost 3 years because my daughter was alive. Her new husband doesn't allow her to talk about the baby because that was her past.

That Chaplain is so wonderful... they all are. The Chaplain said something so powerful. After they leave the hospital 7 move forward it's so great to have someone to remember their experience with them. It's like it matters & it's important. Love what she said about that. 💙🙏😇
