Sad news / Verdrietig nieuws

Today we unexpectedly got the news that we had become grandparents of  our first grandchild which unfortunally was stillborn after an unnoticed pregnancy of more then 20 weeks. We are so sad that we will never get to know our first granddaughter Luna.

Vandaag hoorden we onverwachts dat we opa en oma zijn geworden van ons eerste kleinkind, die helaas doodgeboren is na een onopgemerkte zwangerschap van meer dan 20 weken. We zijn erg verdrietig dat we onze eerste kleindochter Luna nooit zullen leren kennen.

Op een wolkje o zo hoog

Zit je lekker zacht

Kijk je naar de regenboog

De maan die naar je lacht

Sterretjes blinken om je heen

De zon verwarmt je huid

Je bent daarboven niet alleen

Je bent ons vast vooruit

 

Tanslation:

On a cloud high in the sky

Are you sitting comfortably

You are looking at the rainbow

And at the moon which smiles at you

Stars are shining around you

The sun is warming your skin

You are not alone up there

You are just ahead of us.

    I am deeply deeply sorry for your loss. There are no words that can ease your pain. Luna will always be with you, in your hearts and watching over you from above.

    Oh I am so sorry as tears fill my eyes and I can only send you healing energy. It is very traumatic and heart breaking when these things happen. I am hear for you should you need someone to vent out with about your true loss, just as you helped and encouraged me when we lost our little girl twin earlier this year. Luckily we have a teenager and the little man, who from 1kg birth has had 3 operations already and is now 4kg.

    My only words of encouragement are that Luna choose to be made a perfect soul and will be cherished and remembered dearly

    I am so sorry to hear the very sad news. It’s hard to find the words that can comfort your entire family. But I need to let you know that I’m thinking of you all during this sad time and you all are in my prayers during this time of healing.
