We had IUI in Jan. 1995 and then a beautiful daughter, Rachel, was born in Oct.1995. I'm her dad but was infertile so we'd to have donor sperm. Sadly she died suddenly a year ago from SADS, sudden adult death syndrome. This is where the heart suddenly stops for no apparent reason, bit like a cot death in a baby. It's usually hereditary so we blame the sperm donor but not much we can do now. We only had one so we're absolutely devastated and our lives are all but over.

Just wanted to pop by to say we're so sorry for your loss, Yappy. We can't imagine much that's harder to deal with. Your daughter sounds like a really smart and fun young woman. What a terrible loss for you all.

We hope you don't mind but we're going to move your thread over to out bereavement boards. There are lots more really lovely and supportive Mumsnetters over there who will understand and have experience of the grief process you're working through.
