She has been wonderful to me, dropped everything to help when I've had an emergency situation. Supported me through a very difficult bereavement, and I'm so lucky to have her as my friend.
I'm devastated for her and her dh. They got married a year ago and she wasn't sure if she could get pregnant due to fertility issues, but aged 40, she became pregnant quickly.
I have a 'thinking of you' card for them and some writing paper as I wanted to write a separate letter to her, telling her I am here for her and just as she has supported me through very hard times, I will do the same.
She wrote a lovely letter to me very soon after the bereavement I mentioned, so it feels right to write to her.
She has a very close-knit supportive family who I know will be helping in any way they can.
To be honest I feel helpless. She will have just gone home without her baby in her arms. Every time I try to write the card or letter I just well-up with tears.
