First of all, I want to say what a horrible story this is. It truly is a testament to your strength to be able to go on after losing your son like that, and admirable that you fought with the doctors like that to give your son one more chance.

On to my question, and I by no means am trying to be insensitive, but I noticed you said you were smoking after he was born. Did you smoke while pregnant, or was it something you re-started after his birth? Did the doctor's have any snide remarks about your smoking?

I don't know if this is a weird question, but how did you handle dealing with the pain? Were you on heavy painkillers? I ask because my cousin broke her neck in a car accident, and was put on heavy duty pain killers afterwards. Now, she has a major addiction to them. Just wanted to hear your experience with pain management. And of course, congratulations on your great recovery!
