Another loss

Postby Willowhawk » 28 Oct 2006, 21:31

I'm heartbroken... to have to come here twice in one day...

In this case, Jaya is a dear friend of mine, though we've never met. We've known each other through the media of the internet and email for four years, we've seen each other through grief and hardship before. Never this bad, though...  :cry:  :gloomy:  :cry:

On Wednesday 25 October, Jaya delivered her sweet, precious angel boy, Trace Oak, still. She hemorraghed uncontrollably, and had an emergency hysterectomy as well, so we mourn not only her beloved son, but all future children of her body as well. This is a hard blow to those of us in the birth community... I ask for prayers and blessings for this amazing strong mama, who has supported so many and now needs support herself.

Thank you all.

For Jaya: Dearest Mother, Bright and Dark, cradle your daughter in your loving arms as you carry sweet littlte Trace to your cauldron. May my sister know she is not alone, she is held and she is loved.

Thank you all... Jaya is holding up amazingly well in her grief... me, not so much. It's hard to be the support... I hope it isn't selfish to ask for support for myself as well. My heart hurts... :gloomy:
