Heartbreaking

Here is the most heartbreaking post I've read in a good long time, if not ever. A choice quote that makes me cry (if only because I'd felt the same way during our struggle to have a child)

"I'm sorry," I whispered back to him.

"What for?" he asked, confused.

"It's bad news," I answered. "It's bad news. I'm sorry. I lost the baby. I'm sorry. I know there was a heartbeat, but the baby is dead. I'm so sorry. It's bad news. If I wished anything for you, it's that you were married to someone other than me.

I really need to go and finish my infertility series. It's just that it is so hard to write and I hardly have the skills as a writer to do justice to what happened.

Wink -

I saw that post this morning and immediately wrote a link to it in my draft file. It brings tears to me and I feel I had some of the same feelings at times too. I can't stop thinking about it and I was thinking of you too...I was thinking that I'd like to read the rest of your series if you can somehow do it. I hope it would be both powerful and healing for you and others...

Julie - I'll see if I can't get some of it down on paper. If I can do that, then it has a decent chance of showing up here. We'll see. Pray for me.
