i just found out that, my friend from texas, had a baby...
its not all, that was a shock but as soon as she told me that news, she jumped to tell me her child had died just a few hours after birth.
how to respond to that.
"oh i'm sorry your baby died"
"oh... what?!?!"
"you , lie"
no, i didnt choose to day any of those but i did say,
"oh my goodness, i'm so sorry i didnt know, i shouldnt of brought it up"
but that was it, i mean she just poored out her feelings.
i've known her since we were in 6th grade, best friends in 7th and 8th grade
her life turned out like nothing she planed. its scarry how one thing can change so many other things.
luckly her boyfriend, isnt a ass. he was there for her during the whole ordeal,
now they are getting married later on in the year. i'm happy for her, she has a suporting family, from both sides, a loving boyfriend, and she is happy.
well as happy as you can be after loosing your child.
she sent me some pictures, of her, juan, and baby juan together in the O.R.
by that time the baby had passed on. in that single picture,you could see so much love, so much of what other people do not have and try to have.
i told my mom about her
"hey mom remember stephy?
-"yes"
.... and so on..
my mom wasnt so supportive, nor did she show any sympathy for her, the girl who she's known for about 7 years. i just couldnt believe that she was so cold.
i know my mom isnt the most carring person in the world, but that just shocked me.
just makes me think, i'm going threw school, and i think its a pain in the butt. but here is another person who has it way worse than i do.
now i cant help but to think about my other friends,
lorraine,
richard,
rachel,
amy,
josie,
gwen,
so on and so forth.. how are they doing
all i know about them is.. they are ok, but thats what i thought about steph, and look what she was/is going threw it.
i wish i knew about them more, but at the same time, i dont cause my memories of them are so 'perfect' that changing them... well i wouldnt want to. yet again, i do want to know that they are doing ok, that their lifes are fine, just to know cause i do care.
news can be shocking, but that news can sort of in a way open your eyes...
