The biggest myth about stillbirth is that "it's better she was taken that way instead of after I brought her home." I've already written about this, but it continues to bother me. My sweet daughter's crib would be empty either way. When I walk into the nursery and hear only silence, and see a room that's too quiet and orderly, and feel a physical ache in my arms from longing to hold her again, I can't imagine a worse reality. And if this is "better" than the alternative? God help anyone who is "worse" off than me.
