I had a horrible weekend and I need help

I'm so so sorry, Angel. Tucker's family will certainly be in my prayers. The site Lena posted looks great. I recently had a friend who lost her baby girl at 9 weeks old. A friend and I brainstormed ideas for gifts and settled on a tree that she can plant in her backyard. Many sites offer engraved garden "tags" or a carved stone that could be put in front of it. I'm not sure if that's appropriate for her situation or not, but thought I'd mention it.

I think this is the site that was finally used:

My heart is broken. I am so, so, so sorry to hear this. Just heart wrenching!

I will say many, many prayers for baby Tucker's family.

Love honey!
 
Oh goodnesss I can't even fathom the heartbreak. :( I was going to suggest the site Lena shared. And also just wanted to say that I'm holding them in my prayers.
 
That is so incredibly sad. My heart breaks for them :(

I think doing anything at all would be a wonderful thing for a friend to do. I am sure that she will be so grateful that someone remembered her baby. My aunt had one, and I think it was just "forgotten" because the baby never lived, but I think it's important for people to remember.

You're being a great friend. I wish you strength as you help her get through it.
 
This family will be in my prayers, as will you as you work to help them get through this. You are a wonderful friend! ((HUGS))
 
I am soo sorry! My friend lost her baby boy not that long ago, while she was 8 months pregnant, when the umb cord got wrapped around his neck. It was so traumatic for their family. She had to deliver the baby stillborn. The family took lots of pictures and I did make a scrapbook for her. I felt so helpless tho, not being able to do anything to help. I totally understand how you feel. The best thing you can do is just be there when she needs you.
 
I can understand what you mean about how you are feeling...but I really think you are doing the absolute BEST thing any friend could do for them....be there to listen...and my goodness to photograph and make a scrapbook for them...you are one absolutely wonderful friend!! {{{hugs}}} to you for going through this with them...and to have the strength to do what will most likely be your most challenging scrapbook ever. You are one true friend!
 
How incredibly awful. No one should ever have to experience that.

I'll be praying for them.
 
I am so sorry to hear this. We have family friends who lost their first baby to a cord accident at about 8 months. I know it is so heartbreaking. I'm glad that they have you as a friend. Prayers for your friends.
 
so so so sad :( i'm so sorry for their family - and everyone close to them too ... i'll be thinking of you all :(
 
Oh Angel this is heartbreaking...such a sad story :( I can't imagine going thru something like that but I'm sure having you there will definitely help your friend get thru this horrible time.

I feel so sad for your friends and I think it is wonderful that you are supporting them through this very difficult time and taking photos and making a scrapbook for them. You are a true friend! I'm guessing you have this in the US (we do in Australia) I had 3D moulds made of my babies hands & feet when they were a few months old, they were then mounted in a shawdow box along with a photo and a plaque engraved with their details. This is what I mean - sorry about the funny angle but it's night time here and I needed to use the flash.
