Our Loss

For a few short weeks I was given a beautiful gift of anticipating being a grandmother. For a few short weeks I finally saw happiness in my daughters eyes after several years of hardship and struggle. For a few short weeks I understood unconditional love all over again. Sadly I share with you that dream won't be realized now anyway as my daughter lost the baby yesterday.

So many of you shared in my happiness and celebration sent me beautiful pm's and emails and even a few cards. I only share my grief with you as you shared in my families celebration. Thank you for those few short weeks.

Chy...I was so sorry to hear this.
Life is especially difficult when it takes us up to peaks of joy and then sends us crashing down to harder places.
My prayers go out that your family can heal from this and move onto more peaks of joy.
Love and light coming your way from me.

I'm sorry, Chy, and send hugs and prayers for you and your family. My goddaughter lost a baby this past week also, and for you as with her, words fail to express the sympathy I feel.

Hugs and Love
Ann

I am very sorry to hear about the loss of the baby. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. If you or your daughter need someone to talk with, I am here for you. I too have been through the struggles and emotions of losing a baby. May you all feel God's blessings upon you.
