Lisa, I'm sorry to hear this is not the news you are wanting to hear. Praying for you over the Triduum, remembering you in my Holy Communions. Such a hard Holy Week for you and your family.

if I could selfishly ask for a few extra prayers: my sister who lives here in town is also due Thanksgiving Day. (we would have been due together)
I am watching my little nephew right now while they get an early sono.
I'm just so afraid I will fall apart when they get back.
(we did not tell them we were expecting)

Lisa - this is such a heavy, heavy cross you are bearing. Remember, even Our Lord fell under the weight of the cross. If you lose it, I know your sister will open her arms and heart to your pain and understand.

I also understand the very real desire to be alone with the pain for awhile...is your husband home? Can you be unavailable - shower?? - when she arrives?

I know the pain of seeing a little one arrive at the same time you were hoping to hold yours but instead have offered that precious little one back to God. Truly, Lisa, this is a hidden stigmata, and a very painful one to live with.

I am praying for you dearest, Lisa. I'm flooding heaven with my prayers on your behalf and on behalf of this beloved little one.

Lisa, I will holding you and your family in my prayers tonight at the Mass of the Lord's Supper, asking Him especially to give you the grace to unite your deep suffering with His and to bear this very difficult cross. May the Spirit comfort you and may you feel the presence of our Lord and our Lady giving you strength and peace.

Oh Lisa, I know how much you wanted to see the heartbeat. Know that you are not alone. God is with you throughout this hard time. I lifted you and baby in prayer tonight at the Mass. I'll keep you in my prayers throughout all of the Easter weekend.
