Kujo... I'm a grief counselor. If you need help, don't hesitate to reach out. Others are available to help....

If you and/or your girlfriend need to connect with someone, if you are in California there is a group called HAND (Helping After Neonatal Death) that helps people who have lost a baby before or after birth. They have a lot of on-line resources, and links to help you find support.

This page even has info on other resources all around the U.S. :

I'm not on facebook, but some of the PMers who are on facebook know how to connect with me.....

My soul is deprived of peace, I have forgotten what happiness is; I tell myself my future is lost, all that I hoped for from the LORD. The thought of my homeless poverty is wormwood and gall; remembering it over and over leaves my soul downcast within me.

But I will call this to mind, as my reason to have hope: The favors of the LORD are not exhausted, his mercies are not spent; They are renewed each morning, so great is his faithfulness. My portion is the LORD, says my soul; therefore will I hope in him. Good is the LORD to one who waits for him, to the soul that seeks him; It is good to hope in silence for the saving help of the LORD.

From Lamentations

For those who trust in God, in the pain of sorrow there is consolation, in the face of despair there is hope, in the midst of death there is life. N. and N., as we mourn the death of your child we place ourselves in the hands of God and ask for strength, for healing, and for love.

Lord, God of all creation we bless and thank you for your tender care. Receive this life you created in love and comfort your faithful people in their time of loss with the assurance of your unfailing mercy.

Kujo, this is the same info as is in the link above, but it is a PDF. I can't vouch for any of the out-of-California groups, but I know the HAND people are good. Most of these groups can refer you to someone near you and/or have a 24 hour hotline. If necessary, see if there is a 24 hour suicide prevention number -- they will also know how to contact the right people and can also support you at any time of the day or night.

Praying for you and your girl friend, Kujo.....

She is has been picked up and taken home by her mother and father. There was some bad stuff tonight and I think she is going to need some pretty serious psychological assistance now. Thankfully my mother drove up to stay with me for the night. Ive had a few drinks so I'm sad and inebriated. I miss her already. I feel like my heart is dying, and I'm angry. Not at her. I'm mad.

Thanks for the prayers.

Kujo -- still praying and watching to see if you need anything from us tonight.

Sad and angry are really normal... call one of the hotlines if you need to talk to somebody...

Glad you and her parents are there for your fiancee.

Try to get some rest and watch the alcohol because it can make you feel more depressed. (Not trying to tell you what to do... just concerned about you.)

Lovingly,

AnneLine

Kujo,

Peace be with you.
I am truly sorry for the loss of your child. Please know that we all here are praying for the three of you. I am sure your dear child is praying you both.
Stay close to Mary. God bless.
