really brave woman just on talking about having to go through labour alreadyknowing he was stillborn. Moved me literally to tears and I'm normally a tough-nut. She spoke so movingly about what they went through saying that the best thing people could say to her was just "I'm sorry".
Having gone through the lesser pain (for me, that is) of a miscarriage, I'm full of admiration that she keeps going, helps SANDS and can talk so articulately about this often hidden issue on national radio.

I didn`t hear it but know I would have been in tears too, how very very sad and awful for her. My MIL had to go throught that twice many years ago, then went on to have two healthy children, I have lost a child myself so know something of her pain, so sad xx

she was really brave (though said she hated people telling her so). Such a moving story, all the more so when youconsider how common it is. Sorry to hear you lost a child too, triplets.

Thank you. My son died 13yrs ago, sometimes it feels like yesterday. What doesn`t change is the love I feel for him, nor the missing him.He was almost 15 when he died, at that time my only child. He was such a kind boy, so so lovely...........I miss him.
