My IRL friend Lea (not an infertile, doesn't have a blog) just experienced a horrible tragedy. She and I used to work together, but I've primarly kept up with her pregnancy through Rho who is much better friends with Lea.
Lea just lost her baby at 34 weeks and had some very serious health issues herself -- so much so that she needed to be transferred from her hospital to the local Shock Trauma Center. It turns out that she had acute fatty liver (AFLP). I didn't know anything about this until I heard about Lea's tragedy, and apparently it's very rare, but that makes it no less devastating.
Please pray for Lea's continued recovery, pray for her baby boy to rest in peace, and pray for her family to make it through this incredibly difficult, horrible time.

Oh, this is such a terrible tragedy. Your friend and her little boy are in my prayers. I can't even imagine...
I will pray for them. It is so sad when something like this happens.
I'm so sorry. They will be in my thoughts.
Is this the friend you talked about at LJ's?
I will be praying.
I am so sorry for your friend. They will be in my thoughts as well.
I'll be thinking of your friend. I'm so sorry for her.
I think that I will see Lea this afternoon, still waiting on confirmation from her husband. As of last night her jaundice was subsiding and she could eat ice chips - good steps for her recovery. For now the word is stable, improving and hopeful.
