\*\*Tokyo Bayer \*\*- one of my earliest memories of this board was your updates on the progress of your wife’s subsequent pregnancy, and the grief you expressed over Pough-chan, and your slowly. tentatively, realizing that this pregnancy was going to be normal, and being able to take joy in your new child even as you remembered her brother. And also, everyone on the board sending sticky vibes to your wife whenever you updated.

It helped me a lot when I miscarried at 10 weeks - having seen your grief and the love you held for both your children reminded me that I was not alone. It was a hard time, and you all-unknowing made it easier. Thank you for that.
