I have experienced both losing a child through adoption and a stillbirth after 8 months gestation. Both were daughters, and for me there was no comparison. My tears, thoughts and even days of silence were understood,supported and even expected following the baby's death. They were at times catered to. I had a tiny head stone I could visit and lay flowers upon. My in-laws and parents did the same.
My adoption saga was just as hard, just as painful and no one offered support, understanding or even a shoulder to lean on. The death was final and unexpected but the placement was harder. Tracy
