Roller Coaster of Life

Where there are ups there must be downs I spose... I'd trade all my ups this month for a friend.
Its been a great month for me. I got published. Reconized at work. A's in college. I was sick, but I got better fast. Things have been pretty good with the hubs. Quilt got finished. Quilt got started. All sortsa great things ....

Then there is the friend. Now he and I have never met. We had an online class together. Hes a good guy and has a good girl friend. They were blessed 26 weeks ago with a pregnancy and for so long everything went fine. Then last week she went into labor. The tiny boy struggled for a week and then today tragedy struck and he was lost to them. I have no words of comfort to offer them. I am not local to offer a shoulder. I can not bring them casseroles or food. I can't do any housework for her. Flowers will wilt and remind them of death. What the hell do you do? I would gladly trade my accomplishments that I have had this month to help them heal... wish it worked that way huh.
