Tiffany was waiting with open arms. She hugged me while I cried. Tiffany had been through a similar experience. She understood how I felt.
I found out that I had a miscarriage was the worst day of my life. On the next day, I was scheduled for a D&C. I was so scared and sad. I went to the same high school as Tiffany, and I knew her as a friend but now I consider her a very dear friend whom I will always be grateful. When they called my name to go back to surgery, I was shaking and scared. As soon as the door was open, Tiffany was waiting with open arms. She hugged me while I cried. Tiffany had been through a similar experience. She understood how I felt. She treated me with such kindness. She took her time and listened to everything I had to say. She sat on my bedside and let me cry and pour my heart out. That meant so much to me. I was only there a short time, but I never wanted for anything. She was on top of it. After the surgery was over and I was recovering at home, Tiffany called and texted to check on me. She truly cared about how I was physically and mentally. I hadn't checked my mail in days, but I was touched when I opened a package from Tiffany that was a bracelet with the most beautiful saying. No one outside my family has ever been this kind to me. I will never forget her kindness during some of my darkest days. She helped me come out of the darkness.
