Dear Cuties, would like to ask for prayer - my oldest niece Alice, (in Michigan, USA) lost her baby today, 3 weeks before the due date. They are inducing labor and she is, as can be expected, taking this very, very hard. I just wish I could go and be with her and my family at this time, but am unable to financialy. So hard to be living so far away when things like this happen. Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers.

Christie I know you never forget but except the things in life you cannot change. Mine would have been 31 in December but I was blessed later in life with two more and love them to pieces !!!

So sorry to hear this, when it should have been joyous news. It really helps if she can hold the child, name the child, have a funeral for the child. This helps acknowledge the loss as real. Will be praying for all the family, and also for another baby down the road after some healing and sad days.

There are no words that can help at a time like this. I went through it 35 years ago myself. Then had to relive the tragedy again 5 years ago when my daughter lost her little girl 3 weeks early. It just doesn't make sense with all the medical advancements but it still happens. Yet other babies are born weighing only an ounce or 2 and survive. Only love and time can heal this pain. My thoughts and prayers are will include your family. Hugs, Susan

Dear Christine, no conforting words to find for this sudden loss.
Many are with you and your niece and family in thoughts; also my family had such a tragic experience long time ago. My eldest sister lost her daughter during labor. The little girl strangled herself...some years later my sister got a son which now has two sweet children too. My sister loves and spoils them a lot... I am sure your niece will find comfort too and have another baby soon - thinking of you - Maria

The HEAVENLY FATHER has a new Angel child to play with...Please remember to help her understand that one day she will hold that wee baby child and play again...God does what HE sees fit and for whatever reason this was his choice...perhaps in time the reason will come out, but until then I will be saying a prayer for her

Yes, and I appreciate how difficult it must be to stop and have empathy for a stranger who is experiencing what you did. I am humbled.
