TRIGGER - skip if you are sensitive to infant losses.........
One of my friends from HS lost twins last year at 15 weeks. She's pregnant again and due to deliver in 5 days (scheduled c-section). She had her last Dr appt today and found out the baby had passed away. My heart just aches for her. She just lost her mom 2 months ago. I was just talking with some other friends tonight about how excited we were for her and how we couldn't wait to see if she was having a boy or a girl. They were keeping it a surprise, but announced tonight it was a girl named after her mother. I can't stop crying and I feel like someone kicked me in the stomach. I can't even begin to fathom what she's going through.
To top it off, my brother is on a business trip & got rushed to the ER and now is in emergency surgery to take out his appendix. I know he's going to be fine but I am still worried.
I just want to curl up and cry the night away. Last week was DH's co-worker that was only 23. This week its my friend's baby. Dear God, please don't let this come in 3's.

That is heartbreaking. That poor couple; I can't imagine what they are going through.

It's a great pity the right of free speech isn't based on the obligation to say something sensible.

I'm so sorry, sweetie. Sorry for the couple who've lost their baby, sorry about her mom, and sorry about your brother. Brother will be fine, as you say, and won't even have much of a scar to show off. Sometimes, all we can do is cry it out. It just plain hurts.

Thanks, everyone. DB made it through just fine. The guys he's working with will finish the job without him, and then bring him home once he can leave the hospital. I wouldn't want to take that 12hr car trip just after surgery though!
Praying for safety for my friend as she delivers today. I pray they are able to spend time with their daughter and I am glad for NILMDS and the fact that they will get pictures to help with their memories. But the hardest part I am sure will be giving her back knowing they won't ever hold her again.
Chiver - so sorry to hear about your sister's MIL.
I need to find Murphy & whoop his arse.

I'm sorry for all that is going on in your life right now. It is sad that you guys have that in common, the pain from the loss of a child is something I cannot begin to image; however, there is an understanding that you guys have that only people who've been in your situation will ever understand and you will be able to cope and move towards healing with one another. Keep praying and never lose your faith.

Oh, I'm SO sorry! You don't need anymore sadness than you already have.
Glad your brother is ok! And remember your constant ray of sunshine: Aly is your bright spot and will continue to be.
Cry if/when you need to but also find the good and brightness in every day.
