Tragic family news from Dylan Larkin and his wife

Damn that is hard. Prayers to their family.

Prayers for the family, that's a hard road to travel. 

Heartbreaking news 

Prayers to Dylan, your nephew, his wife and to anyone who has ever been through this 

Been there myself, it's devastating.

Had a friend go through this, Just terrible. 

oh man, beyond tough.  God bless them in this incredibly difficult time.  

A devastating situation.  I believe this is the second time that they have shared suffering this category of loss.  Just unthinkable.

The wife and I also experienced this early in our marriage. Guts you sums it up.

Horrible news. Thoughts are with your family, Dylan. 

That's awful; hopefully he and his wife can heal.

God bless them and ease their pain 

🙏

She must have been more than 20 weeks along. Heartbreaking doesn't come close.

Thoughts and prayers to the Larkin family.

My wife and I lost twins last summer.  I'd like to tell him it gets easier, but it just never does.  Every time you think you've turned the corner it hits you again.  Prayers for him and his family. That is something that I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.

No words can express the sorrow one would feel and no words are sufficient to console in something like this. Prayers to Dylan and his family that they rebound from this heartbreak.

Been there.  The percentage for this is higher than one would think.  My wife still struggles with it 14 years later.  As a positive that came from it, we got pregnant again a few months after the miscarriage, and 13 years later, our youngest son (whose middle name is Blue) is an absolutely amazing kid.  

Your heart goes out to them. My wife and I talk all the time about how many people we know that can't get, or stay, pregnant. I couldn't even imagine losing a child.

And then at the other end of the spectrum, I've personally known two women that didn't even know they were pregnant until 8+ months in. Which absolutely blows my mind.

That's heartbreaking. 

Sending all the best thoughts and hopes of comfort through a difficult time. That's awful news...

As soon as I saw “Larkin and his wife” I knew what it was but it was still heartbreaking to read it in black and white 

Somewhwre on the internet there’s a piece Sam Webb wrote after his wife miscarried.  One of the most difficult things I’ve read.  

Sending love and prayers to the Larkins and everyone who goes through this 

My wife and I went through that with her first pregnancy. Although we've had two healthy children born since and both have reached adulthood, there are many days when my wife and I think about what might have been. 

My prayers are with them.

Awful to hear. My wife and I experienced this twice, although not quite as far along. You doubt everything you’ve done when looking for answers, but the reality is that miscarriages are more common than most realize. Sharing these stories helps people know that they’re not alone.

My advice to anyone experiencing a similar situation is that as brutal as this news is, keep hope. We had two successful pregnancies (totaling four wonderful boys) after our losses. When I hear a story like Dylan’s, I go right back to hearing that awful news in that medical office many years ago, but I quickly shift back to realize how fortunate we are with our boys now. I wish that for everyone who has traveled or is traveling the same path. 

May the comfort of divine Love bless Dylan and his family.

Unfortunately, we've been through this a couple of times.  It is awful, and, sadly, extremely common.  I hope anyone who needs help reaches out.

Wife and I just had an ultrasound appointment this morning, all good so far -- she's only at 12 weeks and I already can't imagine how devastating it would be if we received this kind of news.

Oh my god. That's awful. Fuck

I’ve been through this too many times. Hard on so many levels. Tends to be a private suffering; so, the couple’s support network is often just them. And even as a soft-hearted man, I’m still not sure I’ve had a chance to heal a single time because I’m too worried about my wife so my process just goes in the side compartment. And, so far, that’s meant forever.

Whether it’s prayers, strength, love, time, or new hope, I hope Dylan and his wife can find it all.

that’s just fucking terrible. i feel awful for him.

i have been blessed with two children. blessed is the key word. children are a blessing and our legacy to future generations. my heart sank reading this today 

Condolences to Dylan and family. My folks went thru that, and it's horrible.

This type of stuff use to not really hit me until I had my own kid 5 months ago, I couldn't imagine 

Oh no. So sorry to hear that. I hope they have the support and space that they need. 

Again? That's awful 

Prayers to the Larkin family.  We went through this 8+ years ago and still think of what our little one would have turned out to be like.  The emotional toll eventually lightens but never goes away in full.  May they be blessed with a healthy pregnancy on their next one.

Prayers for them, and for those of you who have had to face a miscarriage. I really admire each of you who shared in this thread that you have gone through this.
