TTC After a Loss

Any spare T&P (warning: major downer)

As many of you know, we lost my husbands cousin who was only 25 almost 2 weeks ago.  It's been such a sad time for the family.

Last Wednesday I got news that an old friend had given birth to her baby girl & she survived less than a day.  We haven't kept in close contact, but I will be there to support them at the funeral this weekend.

Last Saturday night a firefighter in the city I grew up in was killed in a house fire.  My husband & I went to school with his brother.  He left behind two beautiful babies & his wife.  As the sister & granddaughter of a firefighter, it's almost too much to take in.  My brother stopped by on the way to the funeral this morning in his formal firefighter uniform & I broke down in tears.

They say it comes in threes.  This better be the f'ing end of it.   

Please send your thoughts & prayers out to our friends & family who are grieving.  Your support here always means so much to me.
