would be this be appropriate?

A friend of mine just posted that they spent last night in the ER. She suffered a miscarriage on Christmas. Would it be ok to text and offer to bring over dinner so they don't have to cook? I know her mom lives here, but I still feel like I should do something.

    Yes, I think it is really sweet to offer that to your friend.

    If she's a friend of yours I definitly would text or call her and if anything just let her know she's in your prayers. So sorry for her loss!

    That's sweet of you. I had people offer to bring food over after my loss, but I declined as I really didn't want to see anyone at all. So one person actually ordered delivery from an itialian restaurant for us. That was really understanding and nice too.

    I think that is a very kind and thoughtful gesture even if she doesn't take you up on it.

    I think considering the option of ordering from her favorite restaurant is a good one.  I also think you may want to wait a few days to give her time to grieve and time to be with her family.

    Definitely offer to do something for her and I think you should call instead of text (if she's that good of a friend to you).

    She would probably love the support, even if she doesn't take you up on the offer.  When I had a m/c, I didn't want to talk to /see anyone, so don't take it personally if she doesn't want visitors.. but it is awesome to know that someone is there for you :)

    I texed figuring if she was sleeping I wouldn't wake her. But I just talked to her and we're taking over dinner tonight and the stuff for soup for tomorrow (all she'll have to do is put things in the slow cooker).

    Please keep her and her family in your prayers
