That the legislature of CO, your representatives, do not know and feel your pain and sorrow is sociopathic. That they would "deem you a murderer" is what terror truly is.

I have had this problem before also. I agree that women who have miscarriages should in no way be investigated for anything that they may have potentially done to make miscarriage more likely. This is very cruel.

In addition to good friends, formal support groups can be helpful. They were for me 35 years ago. Also I would dispel sadness by thinking that if it had to happen, better to have happened AFTER Roe v Wade.

While my reproductive days are over (mercifully), they were marred by several miscarriages due to a chromosome translocation.

I am so sorry you have to go through that, and I am enraged that anyone would attempt to make such a sorrowful time for a person so much worse by accusing her of bringing it on herself. We have GOT to get the legislature back this year.

Again, I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts will be with you as you grieve, and I hope you can find peace and strength through this difficult time.

and I'm also angry that anybody would seek to make a suspect of someone who has a miscarriage.

My wife and I had two miscarriages, and it was easily the worst time in my life.

Any words of comfort I give will surely sound hollow to you, and I won't even try. Just hug the ones you love a little tighter, and know that others are willing to share your pain, and you will survive.

Peace.
