I held my breath the entire time I read this … all three times.

I’m so glad to hear that your little one is OK – I know how terrifying it is to make a dash to the ER in the night. Or any time of day, for that matter.

Regarding the family that you witnessed, my heart just plummeted at their loss. Five years ago, while my triplets were in the NICU, the baby girl in the incubator next to one of my children died. I’ll never forget walking in to the NICU at the same time the family was holding their still newborn and walking out. I think of that baby often and I think of the parents. Especially the mother. I cannot fathom such a devastating loss and pray that I never ever have to.

I wish you strength this holiday season and I hope that you can feel your dad’s love and energy surrounding you, always.

So glad The Poo is OK.

You have such a way of drawing us in; I could almost feel myself in the seat next to you, witnessing the sorrow of the poor woman who lost her baby.

I will hug my own baby tighter tonight because of this reminder. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Life is like a precious, fragile orchid, and we just never know.

I know. Carle, right? They have this room that they put people in when the news is going to be horrible, and unfortunately I’ve been in that room. They let you close the door, at least when it’s not busy.

I’m missing my mom now, missing having her with me to help me through some tough things with my daughter. Illness that we’re hoping to kick in the ass, but nothing is a sure thing and it could go either way and only time will tell and I need my mom right now.

And she’s not here.

So glad your daughter is ok. How tragic for the women in the ER with you.

And, I am approaching the same terrible anniversary as you this year. Hugs to you. I miss my dad so much too.

I’m glad The Poo is alright. I’m sad for the other woman, and wish she could know that you share her grief. So beautifully written, Mrs. C. *hugs*

Oh, my heart.

The ER is a terrible place to be. For many, many reasons.

Glad your sweet girl is home with you again, and that she has you.
