My sister just m/c'd. With both of mine I was on this board all the time. Anyway, when my loses were really freash, like my sisters is now, there were two sayings that really helped me. Kwannabe, Kim, I think told me one. I want to share them with my sis, and can't remember how they go. I am hoping one of you remember and can help me.
One was something about a angel, the book of life.
The other was about god and the baby being so perfect that he decided to keep it.
Clarissa, I remember them, but not well enough to tell you! I'm sure somebody's got them printed out within reach. I printed them out, too, but they're somewhere in a pile of crap.
Give your sis an extra hug from me. I'm so sorry for her loss.
Clarissa,
You are so sweet to be a support for your sister and go the extra mile. I'm sure that she will appreciate this a lot.
At Mary Catherine's memorial, my dad said this, and even though I'm not religious, it struck me as deeply lovely.
"Sometimes God creates something so beautiful that he wants to keep it." I cry every time I think these words.
I wish your sister peace,
Sheri

Oh Clarissa i'm so sorry about your sister I'm trying to think of what i used to say (there were many) but definately Sheri's helped me through.
I love the quote from a childrens book that used to be in my siggy...
"I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always...as long as i'm living my baby you'll be"
When my sil's little girl died a few weeks ago i got her a card that said...
"Every life is a miracle that changes the world, and leaves it a better place than it was before..." That little phrase had me in tears in the store...
take care and give your sister many hugs...if i can think specifically what you were thinking of i'll get back to you...

Viv, that poem is BEAUTIFUL. I have never heard it before.
Clarissa, I am SO sorry for your sister's loss. We are all thinking of her here. Will you tell her about silentgrief.com and www.nationalshareoffice.com?
Viv that was soooo nice...i'd never heard that one either :bawl:
Two poems i'd posted here was an angel never dies, and 'can you be a mother...when youre baby's not with you...' i'll go see if i can find them they were really nice too

Thanks everyone. Those are the one's that I needed. Viv, that is exactly it!! You guys are amazing. I am emailing her them right now. I'm sure that they will mean as much to her as they did me.
What are those 2 sayings? 
I'm trying to think of what i used to say (there were many) but definately Sheri's helped me through.
