Essay

March 31 issue of Newsweek (young Obama on the cover). My Turn essay, page 20, another woman shares her experience with miscarriage. There are so many of us.

Read it here.

I can't read it...hurts too much. Still, you're right...it helps to know we're not alone, here in the "still waiting" line for parenthood.

I had a miscarriage exactly one year after having Angela, who is now 23. It was then that I learned about the fibroid tumors that would prevent me from having anymore children. On that day, Mark and Angela became even more special to me. I didn't get the huge family I was wanting...and now, with Denise (boho girl) going through so much difficulty and wonderful women like you and Trish, just knowing there is so much pain involved, I sometimes feel guilty that I ever wanted more and wasn't satisfied with just having the two.

and about Good Friday, Easter and Jesus...I thought what you wrote was very powerful...

and you did honor him.

love to you Jenny
big love,
