Hi all,
I hope you don't mind me popping in here. Firstly, i am sorry for all if your losses.
I have come in to ask for some advice on how to support my friend. She is carrying twins but was told last week (at 22 weeks) that one had no heartbeat. She is understandably absolutely devastated, not helped by the fact that her other twin is now at risk.
She is not really talking much and has a brilliant support network with her husband and family but I wondered how to handle it from a friend point of view? Any advice from you ladies would be appreciated. I know everyone handles things differently but i am not sure whether to send texts just to say I am thinking of her, whether to wait for her to come to me etc. her (twin) sister is keeping me informed of any updates on the situation and we have been specifically asked not to call but is there anything I can do?
I keep thinking about her but no idea how I can support her, know there's nothing I can do that will help as such but just want to be there.
Sorry for the essay! X
