 the loss of a blessing
It seems to me that nothing good can come of this life of mine. I've been abused, neglected, abandoned, and destroyed...sadly, that's not the end. So many people can say, "Look at the bright side, honey" or "Sure, you could be better, but you could also be worse," really what does that mean? Seriously, what is "looking at the brightside" going to do for my situation? What in the world can "just getting over it" do for me?

Two weeks ago I had a miscarriage. A baby died in me.

How do I just get over something like that?! How do I find the bright side of that?!

I guess you could take into account that I am no where near ready to have a child in my life, but I am capable to care for one. You could also take into account that it was an unplanned pregnancy, but I was ready to take on full responsibility.  But how on earth do you tell someone who has had a baby die inside of her, "it could be worse?" Seriously!!! How much worse could it get? The baby is dead, there's nothing else that can be worse than the death of a baby.

Perhaps I am just not meant to be a mother. I've always been told that I couldn't bear children due to the scar tissue that was left behind from a child molester. I never planned on having kids...even if it was because I knew I couldn't have them. It just doesn't make sense. Why would something so miraculous (me getting pregnant against all odds) be taken away from me without any warning?

I believe in God, but honestly where was he in this? How can he allow things like this to happen? Where is he now?

Sweet one 4 years ago had a miscarriage. lie you against all the odds a child arrived within my body. I was 47 remarried had adopted and this one was "his". For you too some thing wonderful was there and all the hope and potentials of parenting were there and then gone. I'm sorry I know how you feel to a great degree. People say foolish things when a kindly look is all that's needed, they just feel so awkward. Give yourself time. Time to grieve,think, not think, just give yourself time. Unplanned is not always unwanted is it???

I am so sorry for your loss. I can relate but I will not say I understand because even though I have also had 2 miscarriages and I lost my infant at 2 1/2 months almost 3 years ago. So I can completely relate to you but I don't think even having been through similar situations, no one can really understand your pain.

I was also a victim of many, many hardships in my life and childhood. I was abused physically and mentally. We lived in poverty my entire life and things did not start looking up for me until I met the man that is now my husband. I was 17 when we started dating him and he was from a traditional "normal" family and he brought stability to my life. I married at 18 and had my 1st son at 19 and finished nursing school at 20 and had my 2nd son at 21 and lost him right after I turned 22. I am now 25 and have recently had my 3rd little boy and he is 4 months now. But after all the things that I have been through, I could not believe that I lost my son. I had 1 M/C before I had my 2nd baby and 1 after. It was all so heartbreaking. I just wonder sometimes.... What else?? What else can I endure and I'm scared to even ask that question because I feel like it will be laid on me tough.

But in my experience, I can honestly tell you that God will not put more on you than you can handle and he does all things for your good. It was a hard concept to get when my beautiful, healthy little boy was taken from me but I know that he was saving me and him from more heartache down the road. Possibly something that I wouldn't have been able to handle.

Keep your head up and never give up even if everything does seem bleak. It will get better. I promise. You have to endure the rainstorm to get the rainbow. : )
