Many prayers needed

My friend is giving birth to her second full term loss right now. I don't understand this. I don't want to sit here typing this. All I can ask is that you all pray for her and her family. Their names are Manda and Tommy - their first child was Emma, this child was Logan. Keep them in your prayers for the weeks to come. They will need it. I pray that they have the love and support of family and friends that we did. I can't even imagine what she is going through...again. Lightning does hit multiple times, and it's so very not fair.

Just pray.

We also started a candle lighting page, so go light a candle if you feel up to it:

I don't know if this give anyone any hope or not, but I have a friend who had two babies die during delivery. Last summer she had her first live baby, a girl, who is the light of her life. It is possible, it was just a horrible, bumpy road to get there.

I lit a candle for your friend. I also said a prayer for them.

W,

i have an interview right now, but as soon as a i get home i will light a candle for this couple.
i hate this, when there are no words. i feel my tears threatning to pour forth.

That is just devestating. Your friends will be in my prayers and thoughts. Unfair.

And somehow worse to know what is ahead when you begin to grieve.

Ohhhhhh

so unfair.
