    My oldest son is in Cub scouts with a boy whose mother just passed away in child birth yesterday.

    The father is a friend of mine and is now going to have to raise 4 boys on his own, including an infant (who is still in intensive care).

    Apparently the mother had an undiscovered Blood clot and she died while having the baby.

    A very tough day here in Circle C.

    Thats rough right there. :(

    You think you're having a bad day and then you read something like this to put in all in perspective.

    I'll send one up to the man upstairs.

    I know exactly who you are talking about...

    Our God children's parents are very close friends with them. They were playing at the park day before yesterday and the boys were talking about how today they would be playing with their new little brother. We were in complete shock when this happened. I emailed our friend for his birthday before I heard about it...

    This is tragic but it shows how small this online community really is.

    I feel for the father and the kids. I hope the father hangs in there. I'm sure that's what his wife would want.

    Your friend and his kids will be in my prayers. I can't imagine losing my husband.

    Wow, I can't even imagine how hard that must be. I can't even comprehend it.

    Just goes to show you how your whole life can change forever in the blink of an eye. Sounds like a cliche, but it's true.

    Prayers sent.

    Don't know what to say other than my prayers are with your friend and his family. I can't begin to imagine the pain they're dealing with today.
