W for Worry!!

       He saw her sitting quietly and looking out of the window, staring into the oblivion.

       The shock of miscarriage had been too much for her to take and ever since, she had withdrawn from the outer world.

       No matter how much he tried, she wouldn't let him break through the shell she had built around her!

       Worried, he looked at his doctor, seeking some solution, for he was ready to do anything to get her back to normal.

       
       That evening, he packed their bags and set out for a vacation, hoping the change would help her to recover as said by the doctor.

  3. I agree with you word by word. Worries have never helped anyone in anything. There is no constructive worries, they are always destructive...

  4. As someone said “worry is like a rocking char—it gives you something to do but it doesn’t get you anywhere”.

  14. Losing a much anticipated baby is hard. Devastating. I didn't actually miscarry. My baby died inside me when I was almost 6 months along. I had surgery to have it removed. After that, I had 2 beautiful children. I have never forgotten my first though and probably never will.

  21. Sometimes what is needed is a lil bit of understanding though nothing can compensate the loss for someone carrying the baby in the womb. She should be given her space and a gently hug, not expressing anything but a heart to listen and understand. Very well written with the right emotions.
