Expecting the Unexpected 
Meghan,
Today I asked a woman that I don’t know too well how her baby was (she was 8 or 9 months pregnant when I last saw her a few months back). Her face was instantly changed and she responded that, “things didn’t go well.” I immediately thought of you and tried to think of what you have said were responses that made you feel loved or anything that could possibly convey how sorry I was that her baby died and that I had asked her about it in front of other people that she didn’t know. I just said, “I’m sorry. I’m so so sorry.” She told me not to worry, that I didn’t know. And then we all moved on to ordering lunch. Could I have said anything better? Should I email her?
I’ve been following your story since you were hanging out in the hospital with your yoga gear, and cheering you on as you process Mabel’s death and honor her memory. I cried from my kitchen table in San Diego when I read her birth announcement. Thank you for sharing your story and allowing me an opportunity to gain understanding and grow in empathy. You and Mabel have taught me so much.
Thanks,
Kaitlin
thank you for reading and writing Kaitlin! It sounds like you did an absolute lovely job handling such unexpected and sad news. There is so much behind those simple words “I’m sorry” and I”m sure she appreciated it. Could you have said anything better? no, you did great! Should you email her? What a nice idea! (at least I think so). I received many cards and notes from people who I didnt know well (patients, friends of parents and relatives I had never met, old high school classmates I had lost touch with, etc)- and each one made me smile. TO me, it meant that my baby was important- important enough for someone to not only think about her beyond hearing the news, but to also make an effort, writing or saying something when they didnt have to. so if you feel up to an email, I say go for it.
You words on following our journey made me tear up- thinking back to those yoga times and the birth/death announcement that followed shortly after, knowing that someone was following and still is! and here you are, thinking of us when you had a difficult interaction. and the best par tis, how you did so well and how much you’re thinking about it after. gives me strength and purpose. so thank you.
