This should never happen.

Another woman I consider a friend is meeting her son and saying goodbye to him today. Her son tragically died at 38 weeks, at term.

Again, there is nothing to say. No words to express my sorrow for them or my anger that this is happening to another family. No prayer for peace will assuage their grief or make this any easier.

But of course, all I can do is offer words, and thoughts of comfort and peace. Please include this family in your prayers. Remember to be thankful for all of the blessings you have been given, because in a heartbeat the whole world can change.
