Just another thing I miss out on

in Late Term and Child Loss
In 15 minutes my department at work is meeting for a surprise baby shower for my co-worker.  There was talk a few months ago about having a joint baby shower for the two of us since I was due 3 weeks before her...  and I am still in disbelief that it's solely for her now.  I am so happy for her, and she is my best friend at work and also a great friend in general.  It just hurts SO BADLY.  I am dreading going.  I'm going to get the negative attention I don't want, no matter if I choose to go or decline.  I'll still be the girl who had a baby and no longer has one.  I hate this.  So now I get to go, fight back tears, and struggle with "why me?" the entire time.  Greeeeeeat.  I just might smack anyone who gives me the pity look.  Wish me strength...

    ****SIGGY WARNING****

     

    I'm so sorry, that is such a tough spot to be in.  I hate being "that girl" or "those people" too.   Even more than that I hate "terminal cancer face" - that's what I call that pity look people give us.  We all know it all too well.

    I hope that you are doing okay, I see you posted about a half hour ago. If it were me, I just wouldn't go and wouldn't worry about being that person. They will all understand. I am sorry you have to deal with it.

    Well, I survived.  I almost lost it for a sec, but I just thought about it being Friday, and the weekend, and I get to go home to my gorgeous husband!  It just makes me realize, yet again, that life goes on even when I'm still living April 17...

     The cake was delicious, though  :)
