Send a card. Its nice to know people are thinking of you at such a sad time.

Send a card, as acer says. It really does make a difference. Sorry to hear this.

Yes send a card. Even just something simple. It will mean the world to her to know you're there and thinking about her.

having lost twins i would have been gratefull to have recieved a card of sympathy and had my loss acknowledged. It is such a simple thing but lets you know that other peolpe care about you and what you are going through.

a card is an act of kindness on your part I hope you can be there for your poor friend!

yes, do send a card. Will mean a lot. I've kept all the cards I rec'd - read them a while back and they did (do) mean a great deal.

have to agree with mummyhill. Whe you here of people having miscarriages you really do sympathise with them but it is still a 'hidden' subject with some people, as is death. I would send a card. Your poor friend :9
