Thinking Of Others

I want to do something a little different with this post, you see I spend all my time on here talking about myself & this time I want to talk about someone else (a girl I know).

I've been friends with this girl for quite awhile now & I like to think of myself as a good friend & I hope she feels the same too.  A few months ago she announced that she was pregnant & started blogging about it.  I've followed & read every blog post she updated, kept up to date with how she was & how things were going.  A few weeks ago though her baby was born prematurely and unfortunately couldn't find the strength to carry on.

When I found out about this I felt a veil of sadness sweep over me as I'd followed the pregnancy all along.  Now as a man without a child of my own nor been in that situation myself I can't even begin to imagine the hurt & heartache she's been going through.  She is still soldiering on though, trying to move forward and for that I think she is even more of an amazing, inspirational woman and if this ever happened to me I wish that I'll have at least half the strength and character that she has shown in the past week or so.  I know she will have and continue to receive love and support from both her family and her friends but I just want to let her know, in my own special way, that there are so many more people who care about her.  People who want to see her happy, will stand by her through thick & thin and will help in anyway they can.
