So a girlfriend of my sisters (long time friend who lived next to us as we were both growing up) lost her twins this past weekend :-( ... apparently, they were nature made.. both boys...she was at 20 weeks and already had names for them.

She has 2 girls now, but I can understand how devestated she's probably feeling knowing she lost both boys. Apparently one of the boy's hearts was bad and it took both of them instead of just the one...

So, not to be rude and all but... how does one approach a situation like this? is it ok to send a sympathy card or to call and say "i'm sorry" or do people usually leave this stuff alone and let the parents be?? [img]/forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] I dunno if miscarriages are perceived the same as someone dying and having a funeral etc....

I don't want to assume it's ok to send a card when it might just open the wound more....
