What tragedy. I have a special place on my prayer list for those dealing with infertility and pregnancy loss as I wear both of those badges. This family will be added to that list.

And thank you for the verses. After getting some less that stellar news from Kate's doctor, I needed some reassurance. This was perfect.

Lifting your friends up. We lost our first to stillbirth just 9 days before his due date in December. It is so incredibly hard. I pray for God to grant them peace in their grief. It's a really hard road. :(

Thank you for the verses. My friend, it is good the way you protect your prayer requests. Father knows who they are. I love you and will pray for your friends, Marion Tell Ben hello, and that I am proud of him. Thanks.

I will be praying for your friends! when it rains it pours! I lost my daughter to stillbirth @ 36 weeks gestation, and then lost my "second mom" 3 weeks later and then my husband lost his "second mom" three weeks after that! like you have found out in your journey, God does not give us anything we cannot handle, and prayers from strangers are EXTREMELY comforting, so i will be praying for them!
