I was going to be an aunt
hi since you answered my other question perfectly maybe you can help me with a tear breaking family situation that is also eating me up and making me crumble. So here goes-Ok i have 3 sisters and 1 brother. My oldest sisteris married and has a daughter who is 2 and her husband has a daughter from a previous relationship who is 6. So im an aunt of 2 and my 2nd oldest sister found out that she was pregnant with her fiance of 6 years. im 14 years old. my sister is almost 5 months pregnant halfway through but she went for an ultrasound one day. she noticed that the baby really didn't move that much so she let the doctors know. her baby was tested positve for spinalbifida which could possibly make the baby never walk. Then she started freakin out and she blamed it on genetics because our cousin has it. so she went to a specialist to find out if the baby had the disease or not. Apparently my mom researched evry symptom that she had with the baby and it turns out the baby has a very rare disease called potters sequence which is where the babies kidneys are to big where they are hard and pushing on the lungs giving no way for a life. the longest the baby can live is probably only a couple of hours. its really tearing my sister apart. and we are real close so its tearing me up b/c she aint talkin to me. What im askin is how do i try to get through to her without makin the situation worse or makin her cry? i really dont know howq to handle this. but i cant just not say nething b/c she needs me she always said i was the best person to talk to. she has always helped me and i just wanna say nething possible to help her.

Maybe give some free advice about: Families?
Omg! That is so sad! Well, I don't really think there is much you can do in this situation except maybe send her a card and go to her house and just give her a huge hug and tell her it's going to be ok. Maybe if she has a favorite kind of icecream you could get it for her or make her a cake or something. Just do something very sweet for her and let her know everything will be alright and that you will always be there for her when she needs a shoulder to cry on. I'm sorry I know this isn't great advice, but there really isn't much you can do in this situation. -Kayla
