Members Jessica.Maxfield Posted February 7, 2017 Members Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 On January 17, I got a phone call that my best friend since college passed away. January 24, my mother suddenly passes away (only 42). February 3 I get the news that I'm in the process of my second miscarriage. I my body couldn't handle the stress of losing two very important people so close together, why should I expect my baby to. I blame myself for losing the baby. My sister tells me it's not my fault that the stress from those losses was something I wasn't going to be able to shut off. My Fiancé assures me it's not my fault, but that doesn't stop the guilt. I don't know how to handle so much loss in such a short amount of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members reader Posted February 7, 2017 Members Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 Dear Jessica, My deepest condolences and sympathies on the passing of your cherished friend and mom and the loss of your baby. I'm so sorry. Its a lot for one person to go through in such a short period of time. There is so much pain and sorrow and raw emotions. I know its hard but your sister and fiancé are right. Its not your fault. Mentally and physical its a lot to take in when faced with so much sadness in a short time. I hope you will continue to surround yourself with loving friends and family. Seek out counselling or a grief support group for additional supports if you can. We are all also here to support you. Thinking of you. Sending you love and hugs.
