Unfortunate Events
About two weeks ago Laura's dad had a heart attack, about a week after that my mom had to have surgery, they're both fine now, but it seems as though another tragic event has been bestowed upon me and Laura.....For about a while Laura said that she was feeling weird. She was about a month late on her period, but she took a pregnancy test and it came up negative. Turns out that Laura was about a month pregnant, but for about a the last week or so during her pregnancy something wasn't right. She would be bleeding, then she wasn't bleeding, she would have cramps, and then she wouldn't have cramps. Laura talked to her mom (who's a nurse) and her mom checked her out and everything, and we figured out that Laura was having a mis-carriage. It has been difficult for both of us, and hit both of us pretty hard. Anytime she sees a woman on tv or in public who has a little bump, Laura gets upset. I'm upset too, but I can't show it. When we discovered that she was pregnant we talked about having the child so much that I was actually looking forward to being a daddy. I can't let her know that I'm upset though, because I have to be strong and get her through this. Unfortunate things happen to good people sometimes, and Laura is the best person that I've ever met, she's perfect in every way possible. I don't understand how girls who are extremely premiscuous or on drugs can end up having children, they end up being the worst mothers ever. That wouldn't happen if Laura was a mother. She would be the best mother ever, it's just not fair. I don't know what tell her in order to comfort her, and I don't know what to do for myself either. I know I'll get over it, but I don't know how to help her get over it. I guess it goes back to that old cliche'.....time will heal all wounds.
