And to know that is when the healing happens. <br />I could feel your apprehension about school and the mountains. I am sure that everyone feels the same way - whatever your reaction is we just want to put our arms around you. No words.<br />Much LoveJillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06404401690426427970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1796487427937375263.post-46761864632185267372009-09-23T11:37:10.660-07:002009-09-23T11:37:10.660-07:00Lindsay,
We have never met, but I have been follo...Lindsay, <br />We have never met, but I have been following your blog ever since I saw it on Jonah's blog. I have wanted to comment here for awhile, but resisted for the lack of something to say. I finally figured letting you know I'm here is better than never saying anything. In some ways, I can relate to your pain, I lost a baby due to miscarriage 2 years ago and although it is not the same deep pain you are feeling for many reasons that I don't need to go into - it is still deep pain that I deal with. I am encouraged by your words and you have taught me a lot about faith. I am a Christian, but honestly have questioned my faith in my grief. I am really not an open person and don't share a lot of my feelings, but my miscarriage has somewhat changed that. I am encourgaged that you are going to meet this other couple that has had to go through this experience. I would never wish losing a child on anyone, but about a month after my miscarriage one of my best friends miscarried and I would like to think she was critical in my "healing" (that's really not the right word in my opinion) because we were able to share this grief together. She was someone I could turn to and talk to about what was going on and how I was feeling. You have also made me deal with that pain and you have put grief in words for me that I have had trouble expressing. I have never admitted that I was mad at other pregnant women because they were pregnant, but some days I felt like screaming, why do you get to keep yours. My brother's girlfriend actually got pregnant about 4 months after we lost ours. That was something I secretly struggled with. Of course I wasn't hoping that they would lose the baby, I'm sure you understand what I'm trying to say. I have cried sitting here at work many a morning reading your blog, partly for your situation, partly for my own. Please don't apologize for expressing your true feelings! No one has the right to judge them or take offense. I don't have the right words for you and can't put that beautiful baby back in your arms but I am praying for you and thinking about you often. You have made me a better christian, mother, and wife. I am sorry this has happened to you and your family. You will feel joy again. I pray that God will answer your prayers. I have 2 boys now. I lost the child between them at 12 weeks with no indication that anything was wrong. My 2nd son has brought whole hearted joy and laughter back into our lives. He hasn't replaced the child we lost and nothing will, but he has brought light back to our family. <br />I'm sorry that I have come to know of you through this situation. I am praying for your heart's desires.<br />TayarraTayarrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15586941216957845246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1796487427937375263.post-85781871399505452702009-09-23T11:34:49.331-07:002009-09-23T11:34:49.331-07:00I hope you have a safe and relaxing trip to the mo...I hope you have a safe and relaxing trip to the mountains!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14529382306516076988noreply@blogger.com
