Once again, I find myself speechless. Having no words of comfort, not even knowing what to pray, just thinking the word "How?". How does someone recover from a loss like this. DO they ever recover? And finding no answers. God's only response to me, when I say "I don't know how a parent deals with losing a child" is "I do". It's a painful, potent reminder that we serve a God who knows exactly what it feels like to lose a child.
Brett and I were just saying a couple of days ago how difficult times in life can make things complicated and simple at the same time. It's always nice to have things clarified... to have a reason to forget the trivial and focus on the significant, but man... sometimes the price of those clarifying moments feels so high.
Pray for Stephanie and Dustin. No need to pray for baby Duncan anymore. He is in his Daddy's hands.

Oh Kim, I am so sorry. I will be praying for that family.
I'm so very sorry. I'll be praying for strength and healing for everyone..including you. It's hard for friends to watch people they love go through such a difficult time and feel so helpless. God has his healing hands over everything.
HUGS!
A similar thing happened to my friends on Tuesday, although they weren't that far along. So sad. :(
