I had a teenage cousin who lost her first child in a similar way. More recently, a friend who I think of as a daughter, had an 8 pound baby boy, Rogan, at the hospital, die at birth. I still find this appalling. The indications a week before was that the baby was to be a lovely healthy child. As it turned out by the time the baby came his had drowned in it own amniotic fluid. Its lungs were full and they could not get the baby breathing. I guess I have reason to reflect on childhood friends who died about 8 before I was 20. Most by car accidents. All this reminds us that life is a gift and we should cherish it for it may be withdrawn at any time.Tossing Pebbles in the Streamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04354065895900279070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4469436682373656280.post-14442898238268041502013-06-03T11:51:42.112-07:002013-06-03T11:51:42.112-07:00Indeed.
