My brother & SIL were pretty far along with their 4th baby girl...this happened on the 10th, my brother and his wife are just coming to terms with it and telling people, I'm in shock. Especially being pregnant myself, you kind of think that all M/Cs happen early on in pregnancy, and when something like this happens it sort of blows that right out of the water...

I really am in shock. They were going to name her Ella.

Matt said that my SIL went into labor late on July 9th night and Ella was born stillborn a few hours later, once they realized she wasn't alive anymore they took her out by C-section.
Please pray for them, and especially their older girls, just for peace and understanding and comfort during this really hard time of loss...
Thank you.

I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your neice. Your family will be in my prayers. I couldn't imagine having a stillborn it would be one of the hardest things to deal with. They don't know what causes it do they?

Thank you Sarah. I didn't get much information from my brother on what specifically caused it, I'm not sure they know...

Thank you all for the hugs and prayers for them, I realized I really haven't updated, if there's anything to update. Basically I haven't talked with them since we've been over here in Italy, but when we talked last they were sounding a little more sure of what was going on emotionally and trying to get a grip on things, come back to life for their older girls at least, so that's a step up, they're both pretty depressed, to say the least, so keep the prayers coming. I'll be talking with them over the weekend when we get home, so I'll update after then if there's anything to say.
Thanks again...
