It is with GREAT sadness that I tell you that my friend who was struggling to hold on to her twins (boy/girl) at only 20 weeks lost them this weekend. She endured a long week last week, including an inverted bed (trindillenburg), a few bouts with labor, magnesium sulfate, lots of tears, and eventually, delivery of one stillborn baby and one who lived only a very short time. I ask for prayers for them and their family as they make their way through this tough time. It's been a VERY long road for them up until now with fertility treatments and prior losses over the last 5 years. To have this pregnancy end this way is absolutely devastating and words cannot even describe how sad and lost they feel. Losses during holiday time are especially hard and it just doesn't seem fair that two of the most loving, deserving people that I know have had their hearts ripped out, once again.
To my dear friends, H&C, you are in our thoughts and prayers always. Time heals but the pain will never fully go away. You have handled this situation with such incredible courage and love. You should be proud of yourselves for that. Take good care of each other and know that your two little angels will always be watching over you. Someday, you'll meet them again. We love you guys.

Although I don't know H&C personally, I do know their story. I have been thinking and praying for them since last week when I found out about their hospital stay- and will continue to pray for them, their family and their angels.
All of our love, respect and strength to them,
Debbi, A.J., Sally and Sophie Kritzman
We are so sorry to hear about your friends H&C. Our thoughts and prayers go out to them both during this extremely difficult time. There aren't words to describe what they are going through, I do hope they are comforted knowing that many people are thinking and praying for them.
The Zentz Family
Craig, Robin, Daniel, and Sarah
The story of H&C is one that I know and hear others experience. Yet, each time I wish that no one has to endure such a thing. I wish that I could send a hug to H&C over the information super highway. I will be thinking of their angels often and will send best wishes to their family.
I also will be crossing my fingers and toes for Kate's other friend sitting bravely at 26 weeks and fighting for her twins.
All my love
