A friend of mine, in her early 40's, after years of miscarriages and treatments, finally pregnant with their beautiful son, at 37 weeks, delivered him stillborn this week.
The umbilical cord was too short. When he descended in the natural preparation for delivery, it detached from the placenta. That was it. He was perfect and healthy in every way, and yet tragically was taken before he had even breathed...
For me, I find solace in my Faith and my God. For my friends, who are not religious, I cannot imagine their grief.
Please pray that they will feel peace.

This post gives me chills...I'm sick to my stomach. I'll definitely pray for your friend and her family. How devastating.
No. No, no, no, no!
Oh my. What a tragedy! My heart is breaking. The hymn where can I turn for peace comes to mind.
I imagine all the prayers in the world can't replace the hopes and dreams of new parents, but I'll pray anyways.
That's so terrible, Cheryl. I'll keep them in my prayers.

As I read your words my eyes filled with tears and it was if someone punched me in the gut! I am so sorry and will keep them in my prayers! My sister Michelle lost a little boy after delivery, she has found many website that have connected her to other mohters that have had such a loss!
