Really sorry man.

Dirk,

So many families in the Sangha have known this. I can tell you all the Buddhist theory and facts of nature about such things, but everyone sometimes must just meet it head on.

I often think that my wife and I only have the beautiful boy (and soon-to-be girl) we have because of all the at-the-time hard events and biological hurdles that led to this moment. I know you and your wife will be able to say that sometime soon.


Gassho, Jundo

[Shugen]

I too am sorry for your loss

[Lynn]

Virtual hugs are a poor substitute, but am sending many to you and your wife. Will send a little Jizo prayer your way.

With much empathy,

In Gassho,

Lynn

Condolences to you and your wife, Dirk.

I know exactly what you are experiencing.

Please give lots of support to your wife as this can be a hard time especially for her.

Dear Dirk and family:

I'm so out of it....I finally got to read this thread, and it was going along so merrily and happily and then everything turned upside down.
Thank you for letting us share both with you: your joy and your sorrow.

Hearts as open as space

[Undo]

sorry to hear that news. I hope you both take care and take time.

[Bansho]

Dear Dirk,

I'm very sorry to hear that. I wish you and your wife all the best for the future.
