One of Amorette's Babies Has Died

My dear friend and fellow cancer blogger (and bento artist) Amorette was about 18 weeks into her pregnancy with twin girls when she lost one of the babies.

Little Cécile was born on Sunday, April 13, after a premature delivery, Amorette writes on her blog. "She was too tiny to breathe on her own and died shortly after the cord was cut."

The funeral is today, and sadly Amorette cannot be there, because she is still in the hospital, fighting to save Cécile's identical twin sister, Madeleine. Her mother Pam is with her.

Please go to Amorette's blog to leave her a message, and keep that number 24 in mind--that's how many weeks old the baby needs to be to survive.

*sniffle* Awww. That just hurt my heart. Much love to her. I can't comment as my blogger blog is topsecret and her blog won't allow regular comments. Please send her prayers and hugs from Tejas.
