Kania's Baby
There's this girl I work with, I think she's 19, definitely not any older.
The last time I saw her, she was telling me that she found out her baby was gonna be a boy.
She had picked out a name, and it weighed just over a pound.
The next day, she lost the baby. He was born way too early, and his lungs hadn't developed.
I cannot begin to imagine the grief she's feeling now.
She came into work today, a whole two weeks since I last saw her, and she was still a mess.
The only thing I could think to say was, "it's good to see you."
