I got back from vacation on Saturday and have been debating whether or not I should post this. A couple weeks ago I posted a thread titled "Something I have in common with Brent and John Bush". At the time my wife and I found out she was just a little over a month pregnant. Well, unfortunately while we were vacationing in Florida on Friday the 18th she started bleeding and later in the day began having contractions and they ended in a miscarriage. So for the time being fatherhood will not be something I get to experience yet. We are both extremely sad. We cried together for guite a while Friday and have been figuring out our own ways to cope. She was only 6 weeks along, so the baby wasn't much physically, but the idea of what we were going to have was great. We may try again in the future. Neither of us know for sure if we could handle the same situation again and stay sane. The ironic part of the situation is that her mother had a miscarriage once at the same exact stage or pregnancy. Six weeks later she was pregnant again and had 2 more healthy children. So the same situation may occur here.
I'm not a religious person, but I do believe that things always work out somehow. Life is not perfect, but if you stick with it and try hard enough things usually turn out for the best. I'm sticking to that philosophy in this situation and keeping my fingers crossed for a silver lining to this dark cloud.
