75. When buying our first home, we bought from a young couple--I had my child just a few months earlier.

When we met them, she asked about my son; I went on and on about how thrilled I was--I was not expected to be able to have a child after lifelong diabetes.

When we got in the car, our realtor (who didn't know about the coversation) mentioned that she had just lost her child after 4 months of carrying. I was so upset I sent her a card. She was nothing but gracious, but I will never forget it.

Excellent advice, Withyindle. Thank you for the reminder.
