[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 582920, member: 84"] Losing a child is the worst thing in the world........losing an infant.........there are just really no words. Most people just do not know what to say due to that, or fear saying the wrong thing or doing the wrong thing. in my opinion the baby was/is a person and should be treated and respected as such, that it is important to do so for the parents sake. Nichole and I supported her bff when she lost her son a few years ago. I know it is still important to her that those around her acknowledge him as a person and nothing hurts her more than when they shy away from the subject or want to pretend it never happened. Katie lost her 3rd baby late term as well......and there are times when she just needs to talk about it. I just listen and validate their feelings. GN is in pretty bad shape. She was discharged today. Her husband is being as much a rock for her as he can possibly be. Proud of him because I know it's hard on him too. There will be a small private funeral with just parents/grandparents. Niece and GN's dad will be with her during that time. Sister in law will be returning to virginia tomorrow. GN and her husband will be surrounded by his family who love them dearly and I'm sure there will be plenty of support. My girls and I have let them know if they need anything, we'll be front and center to do whatever we can too. Sister in law and I visited for quite a long time this afternoon. We caught up on family news and such. Nice visit, just wish it was under better circumstances. [/QUOTE]
