I Was Supposed To Have A Baby

View Original

We will all get through this.

I got a message tonight from a woman who has been trying to have a child for years. She has had too many miscarriages to count, but keeps pushing and keeps trying different doctors, medicines and treatment plans.

She reached out last week to tell me that she was pregnant again, and really hopeful this time.

Tonight, she told me that her baby died...again.

And I sobbed and sobbed and sobbed.

I had no words for her. What could I possibly say that would ease some of her pain? I came up empty.

Now, hours later, I am sitting here, scrolling through the news of the day, and the tears are coming again.

So this reminder is for me...and all of you out there who are struggling.

We will all get through this.
