Well, here it is. I went to the Emergency Room today and "am in the process" of having a miscarriage. This is completely disturbing to me, and for some reason I thought that I was immune to this. I am not. I know, that I was not far along, and I am thankful that I never heard the baby's heart, or saw her picture. It doesn't make it easier. It is heartbreaking to me. I know it is for Brandon as well. I just have to believe that our baby was not formed, and that something was terribly wrong with her. I must believe that it is easier to know now and early. The doctor says that we will be able to have a healthy pregnancy, and baby. Still, it is not easier. I hate that every time I use the restroom I have to be reminded of what has happened to my body. It is impossible to not second guess every single thing that I have done the last month. I know that this happens, and logically, I understand that I did not cause it. Still, I ask myself if maybe riding a roller coaster before I knew was the cause or could telling everyone so early have caused it? Like I said, logically, I know it was not the cause, but those thoughts still make their way into my head. We will be OK. I am so lucky and happy to have such support and such caring people around. I thank you for that.

Can't say enough how sorry I am. I am here if you need anything.
Mal you have the most beautiful heart - I'm so sorry you guys are going through this. I'm praying for you.
I love you my sweet friend. I'm so, so sorry that you're having to face this major sadness and loss. I'm praying for you what Philippians 4:7says, "And the peace of God, which passes ALL understanding, will guard your heart and your mind in Christ Jesus."
I'm here for you.
Love,

The Oakley Family is in the prayers of many people. Take care of yourself and remember that your hormones will have an impact on your emotions as well.
Oh Mallie, I am so sorry :( Let us know if you need anything at all.
Mallie, I am so sorry you are going through this difficult time but I admire your strength to share it here on your blog. A very close friend of mine suffered a miscarriage last weekend and I know no matter how much you tell yourself "there's a reason," it doesn't necessarily make it any easier.
I will be keeping you in my prayers!
Mallie, I'm so sorry you're having to go through this. You're in my prayers.

Mallie,
I am so sorry! I keep up with your blog through Annie. I will be praying for you and Brandon.
