The loss of a baby

I've experienced numerous times as a nurse, and it never gets easy. To see a mother and father mourn and cry over bad news, that they're baby is no longer alive and will not be alive at birth is way too hard to even put into words. I can't begin to tell you how emotionally draining it is to hold someone's hand when they are given the worse news.

Today I find out my nursing school girlfriend lost her second little girl, and probably at term. A full, healthy striving baby, born and died. I dont know the extent of the situation but all I know is that she is mourning the loss of a baby she carried nurtured, loved, but will never hold or raise. I just can't fathom that.

I am reminded today, that through my obstacles with parenthood, my downs I encounter when Maya is being a handful, I am blessed that's she's here. Something others don't have.

My little vampire, is in the next room, asleep and healthy. I am blessed. We are blessed.

Who knows what gods plan was for jassy's baby, but one thing is for sure, she is now an Angel to all her cousins and buddies.

May my friend jassy find peace in her heart. I send her my biggest love. And a long strong hug.
