Often I am reminded quite blantantly just how lucky I am to have 3 wonderful, healthy little boys.... As many know I am a member of many online communities - some are for my 99 child, some for my 05 child and one that I lurk on but never quite feel comfortable speaking up on is for women who have suffered the loss of a pregnancy/child - (PALP)... So many of those women have been thru so much just to have a child and many still don't... I don't always feel I fit in since while I have suffered a loss I also have 3 wonderful blessings so I can't fully know the heartache that others have gone thru... One of the women in particular has been trying for years to have a baby - this year she finally got her wish - a miracle - she found out she is expecting... This joy I know!! I am so happy for her... And then she found out it's a boy - this joy I know too!! But then she found out that destiny has other plans for her little boy and my heart aches for her... I can't imagine how she must feel with her son growing inside knowing she will never get to see him grow up or hear him laugh or see him smile.... Such bitter sweet sorrow to know that someone you have been waiting for so long is JUST out of reach.... My prayers go out to my SISTA from PALP... May the joys she will experience during the remainder of her pregnancy forever warm her soul and comfort her in her sorrow... {{HUGS}}
