R.I.P, little one.
it's called abruptio placenta, when the placenta prematurely separates from the uterus, thereby cutting off vital oxygen to the baby.
it could have happened to anyone. the mother-to-be seemed to have accepted her & the baby's fate.
time to move on, despite the hurt.
still ample time to create, & await the patter of little feet.
people advise : it's not what cards life deals to you - it's how you play them.
David did one better:
My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me were written in your book
before one of them came to be. psalms 139: 15,16

A very painful loss.
Iml,
all the more when you have to witness the tragedy unfold before you.
but still, life has to go on.
Yes, we are all wonderfully and fearfully made!
I identify the pains and sense of loss - having gone through that many times more than one! But He sustains me. Thank you, Father.
