Seconds

They were few, but each one was incredibly precious. It would be enough time to tell her baby "I love you," to kiss her forehead, and to spread out her fingers before the child died in those few seconds.

*** One Word ***
Someone I know will be going through this when her child is born within the next week. It saddens me to no end.

    I've had to hold a friend while she cried for the same reason. You feel so helpless. Just be there for her and let her talk and cry. She'll be glad you were there. Be strong.

    I believe her husband will be there with her, but my heart continues to break for her. Having my own two children, I can not imagine.....

    I don't even have the words to express it.
