I want to come to you today and spill my heart to you, telling you how good we are all doing, that we are able to understand and accept this incredible loss and this unmeasurable feeling of sadness in our hearts. But I would be lying.
Fortunately, everything that could be making us ache a little less, the love of our family, the cards, the flowers, the food that just shows up on our doorstep, the gifts, the e-mails, the support and comments on this blog, bring a shred of bright, beautiful light that we need during these very darkest of days. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Someday, I will reach out to you individually, but for now, this will have to do. Thank you a thousand times over.
I’ve had many people inquire as to if we have a place where individuals can make a donation in honor of our precious Jakie and James, the answer is yes. If you click here, it will lead you to a page for the March of Dimes. Back in December, one of my dearest friends, Amy, lost her daughter, Lydia, to anencephaly. Amy is currently fundraising for the March of Dimes in honor of her daughter. If you’d like to make a donation, just click here and you can donate, please just reference our babies, Jake and James F.
Thank you again for the kindness in your words, for the tears you have shed and for the love that you feel for our family. I wish I had some other way to convey to you how I feel about you, Oh God, do I wish for that, but for now I hope you can feel it from these words.
Peace and Love to you and yours

Oh you sweet girl. How I wish I lived around the corner so I could help you physically at this horrible time. I pray, like almost everyone who is commenting for you and your family which is all I can do from this distance.

My heart is just broken for your family Beth. I wish I could say something that would make a difference, but I have no idea if there even is a right thing to say. Just know I’m thinking of you and so very sorry.

Oh My!(First time visitor here) I’m SO SO SO very sorry to read what I have!! I don’t know what it’s like from a mother’s perspective, but I DO from a grandmothers. And still, I’ve got no words to console you. There are none. But, do know that you and your family are definitely in my thoughts and prayers!! (This is what helped us get through it – thoughts and prayers)

Beth, you have been in my thoughts so often the last few days, and my heart simply hurts for you. As I said in my last comment, I don’t have adequate words to tell you how very sorry I am.
Please know how many people out “here” love you and are thinking about you.

That you even have the strength to share what you are going through is a true testament right now. You are continually in my prayers.

Thank you for this checking in, it’s so selfless. I’m sure you want nothing to do with a computer right now, but it does bless us all to “hear” your voice.
God is your only true comforter, I pray you lean into Him right now. It won’t always be this soul sucking, and you will grow so much through this process. I know my words are inadequate and you probably don’t care a lick about personal growth, but God knew this was going to happen a long time ago and knew you could ultimately get through it.
Sending lots of hugs…

You are constantly in my heart and mind. I am praying for you, that this pain will ease and that the love around you will ease your burden a little.

No need to say you’re over it.
Heck, something today just reminded me of my miscarriage almost 3 years ago, and I took a moment and felt pretty sad about it.
These things can hurt for a while.
