An explanation

A good friend advised me to explain the reason for my previous post. A poem entitled 'A Possibility' He suggested that Blogs are a place to share experiences and sometimes a place to receive support.

Two weeks ago, my son and his wife, the couple whose wedding last summer I so happily posted about, lost the baby that they had so excitedly looked forward to. The baby died in the womb and this was a terrible shock for them. This would have been my first grand child. I am so sad for my son and his new wife. I cannot imagine how they are feeling at the moment. For myself, well the poem says all that I need to say.

Well, there are things we´ll never understand. Life is completely unknow for us, but we are strong enough to support it. Sleep well.

Thank you Dion, how kind of you to comment. Yes, they are strong and will support each other through this. I just felt the need to mark this loss with my poem.
