I was in mid-write for today's post on hospitals when I spoke to my mom and she told me that my only female cousin, same age as me, as suffered a miscarriage at 21 weeks. I didn't even know she was pregnant and now she has a little boy lost, who would have been born only a week before my own.
I'm mourning her loss, and grateful for the little boy I already have and praying for the little one still inside.
I'm sorry to hear the news - it is so sad for them. I will say a prayer for her. And you and baby are always in my prayers.

That is just heartbreaking, I'm so sorry for your cousins loss. Often, after a late miscarriage like that, they find there is a developmental reason (in the fetus) and you KNOW from your doctors scan that everything is progressing perfectly (in case you are thinking along those lines). Lets hope there will be other cousins for your little boy(s) to play with.
