miscarriage.....

ok, so my book club came to a vote at a high point in the conversation....how many women present had suffered a miscarriage?........and 5/6 women present had done just that.........women that not on my radar for such loss............so much more in common that i thought previously..............stories to share aside from book club, obviously.................the woman present who had never miscarried was actually the oldest to conceive and the oldest to deliver.....her first and only pregnancy.........who knew?.................but back to loss.......there was discussion of what the other children had said after loss.......i recall both of our sons asking me about the baby that didn't come home from the hospital.....,much simpler than sara who miscarried at 20 weeks......i had no idea..........abortion is one thing, but the trauma of miscarriage is more to the point of a woman's existence..........
