He talked about how we (USA people) don't know what to do with a book like that because we like to avoid talking or thinking about the sad things in this world. He talked about how it is good for us to mourn and face the things that will make us sad. So I'm glad that you have been able to talk and think and process your miscarriage. I'm so sorry that you experienced it. I'm so glad you are healing. I'm so glad you enjoyed being preggers and I'm looking forward to the pet names you come up for your children! :) Priscilla,

(and how much I appreciate it!) I love how you have been very open about your experience with all of us. I understand your stance about fertility treatments. I can tell you from experience how LOUD a biological clock can be and how painful it can be to want something so much and really have no control over it. I also want to completely agree with you in regards to midwives! I took a women's studies course in college and we had a midwife come in to speak with us for a few classes. I learned so much and was completely fascinated. I knew then and there that if I ever got pregnant I would be using a midwife and a birthing center. (of course that was before I knew of all my issues...I may never need one) I am so glad you had a positive experience even in regard to something as difficult as a miscarriage. It cements my initial decision to use one. Now that this response has gotten too long let me end by saying I miss ya and if you ever want to talk about our loud bio clocks you know where to find me!
