If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever!

I would’ve done anything to keep my baby.
I would’ve traded sleep.
Comfort.
Certainty.
My own body, my own peace, my own plans.
I would’ve taken more pain if it meant more time.
More fear if it meant more heartbeats.
More scars if it meant you stayed.
People like to say “there was nothing you could’ve done.”
And maybe that’s true.
But that doesn’t stop a parent’s mind from listing everything they would’ve given up anyway.
Because when you lose a baby, it’s not just grief.
It’s the instinct to protect with nowhere to go.
It’s love with no place to land.
I didn’t lose you because I didn’t want you badly enough.
I didn’t let go.
I didn’t give up.
I loved you with everything I had.
And I would’ve done anything to keep you.
