My best friend lost her baby. She was due in a couple weeks. I’m heartbroken for her.
Does anyone have any advice on what I could do or get for her? I can’t even physically be there for her because of covid.
I’m going to reblog this because I have a lot of mutuals who have the same experience and maybe have something to add.
I am so sorry for your friend. And for you. While the grief is way different and obviously less than what she’s going through, it’s incredibly difficult to see someone you love experience this.
My friend’s purchased a set of trees to be planted in Liam’s name through the Arbor Day foundation. It was a really beautiful and touching gift. Gift cards for food places are always helpful. We sent straight cash to Bill’s brother through Zelle when their daughter passed away so they could order food or order groceries whatever they needed to free their time up so they had the space to cope and grieve without other stresses.
And I hope this doesn’t come off as harsh, but the best thing right now is give her space from your newborn. By no means am I saying your friend doesn’t love you or Tessa, but I can tell you it might be incredibly difficult for your friend to be around her (impossible due to covid anyways), see pictures, or even talk about Tessa. It’s just a reminder of what shes lot. Gently remind her that you are there for her and keep checking in on her and follow her cues. What a terrible thing to happen.
wow owwowowowo has it been a looong fucking few months…& I say few, but after checking my last post, it’s actually been F I V E months since my lil tragedy and let.me.fuckin.tell.you…. it’s been a RIDEbro
I know no one remembers me / no one cares / & maybe even no one gets on here anymore (I hope not tho at least; I’m kinda diggin what little I have seen on my dash tho), but TW: pregnancy loss. Sothathappened, then my boyfriend broke up with me & kicked me out the house.
So I had to move back to where I’m from and I am still teeechnnniiiically homeless (I kindve do have a place to stay, but there’s no place to sleep AT the place. it’s also a very discostin place. like… there’s a room just for the t h r e e cat’s litterboxes disgusting. with carpet. the cats don’t all get along with each other so there’s a lot of territorial things happening & one of them just… has no home training and is wild & the last will NOT go in the box if it’s even just a lil dirty, so he goes all.over.they all do actually. and the person i’m living with doesn’t clean it every single chance they need to/should. it’s also very messy with junk. there’s just shit (ha ha not actual shit but also? yes actual shit too:/ ) everywhere; 3.5 out of 5 hoarding skill. of just….random-ass-stuff-all-over. so that’shappening….
i did find a job, and i’ve been at it for roughly a month, but we’ve only been open open (since after Hurricane Ida) for almost 2weeks & everypenny i’ve made since then (i’m a server) has gone to people who I owe for getting me through the timespan of when I just moved back here + had nothing to my name. the people that fed me and made sure i had enough money for literal necessities as a woman.so i haven’t yet been able to put anything aside and it’s just all v stressful BUT(..!)All this to say:
I just randomly (I say “random”, but was watching a Vixella stweam + it made me wanna play TS4 and get back on here and DL cc and organize my mods folder and basically just go back to the time just 3 mos ago when I wasn’t homeless, still had my relationship, didn’t have to work and honestly… had the life I wanted. So. but. I hope all of you have been well all this time (speaking to myself cause I know daMN well no one will read this bullchit LOL), and if you did read this GOD I hope you are exCEPTIONAL n happy n healthy and have everything you could ever want and need out of this life already. I’m going lurk Tumblr for 5 hours straight to try& remember everything my smol, dumb brain forgot about and all my faves and all the new and fresh and exciting cc and wow? iS this ACtual exCITEMENT I FEEL???? That isn’t accompanied by the weight of the world in stress? (my brain is always v conflicting & contradicting; I’ma gemini whatcannIsay) I hope this feeling lasts at least a littlewhile. I love you all. ♡
hi guys, i know it’s been a while (since simblreen to be exact) & my last real (as in not queue’d) post was the giveaway & i’d like to clear a couple things up. i would like to put a TW beforehand, though. Please do not read ahead if pregnancyor pregnancy loss is a trigger for you!!! If you aren’t able to read ahead: I had personal matters come up, but the winner was messaged & given their gift. I might do another giveawaay in January to make up for taking so long to let you guys know and stuff. I’d also like to give another chance since a lot of people missed the opportunity (according to my dms at lesat) ANYWAYS. onward lol
- the winner was contacted & they have received their gift. - i ghosted tumblr, as well as everything else aside from my bed, because i found out i was pregnant before i had decided to do the giveaway & found out after that that i had miscarried. my chances of getting pregnant are slim to none & if you’ve ever seen any of my personal posts talking about it, it bothers me a lot. so i was kind of stupid excited. lol. i constantly wished i was that woman who was able to BE a woman & have children. so it immensely affected me. i didn’t pick up my computer but once or twice after finding out & one of the times was to actually message the winner since i felt bad about ghosting. but.
i do want to say that i am sorry, everything is ok now, & i love you all
Series Premise: Alyssa Devereaux and Drake Walker fell in love at Langston University nine years ago. Drake broke things off out of nowhere and disappeared, breaking Alyssa’s heart. What will happen when she’s chosen to compete in Liam’s social season?
Chapter Premise: Alyssa’s life takes a turn for the worse after Drake breaks things off. (2010)
A/N: Remember Two Things jumps between 2010 and 2019. 2019 chapters will be told in third person past tense, e.g. “She said …” 2010 chapters will be told in first person present tense, e.g. “I want to …,” and the perspectives will switch between Alyssa and Drake. I am hoping this is not terribly confusing and look forward to your feedback!
Flashback chapters happen because the character featured is having those memories in the present day. In this chapter, Alyssa is telling Drake all of this in her room following the Coronation.
Please let me know if you’d like to be on or off the tag list!
A/N #2: I have written some very emotionally difficult things, many of them within this series.
This is probably the hardest chapter I’ve ever written.
Thank you to @bbrandy2002,@ao719,@axwalker for prereading, to @kat-tia801 for cry-emoji-ing with me, and to @txemrn for scanning the hospital scene for accuracy and telling me what Kristin should say. Thank you also to @mskaneko for the the moodboards that close each chapter.
Lastly, thank you, readers … your messages, asks, likes, comments, and reblogs mean the world to me. I appreciate them so much!
Drake Walker – and the memory of him – belongs to Pixelberry Studios. They can claim nothing else here.

I’d like to take a minute to apologize PROFUSELY for being so late in reblogging all of your amazingness. You know I don’t log on much anymore but I will for you anytime, anywhere.
Iknew this chapter was coming. I knew it … and I still dove in, face first, because Lyssa needed this. She needed to tell Drake everything about this time in her life. When shit sucked. When she didn’t even really see the point in living through life like she used to. She didn’t see why she had to go back to school. School reminded her of the love of her life and the good times, and right now, it wasn’t good.
A quick sob escapes as I consider that I might not even need to take my pills anymore, not if I have no one to love me.
This statement makes my chest hurt
Mariah Carey is warbling “All I Want For Christmas Is You” over the speakers.
This makes me chuckle because I know how much you do NOT enjoy Mariah and every Christmas season people be blasting this song (it’s me, I’m people).
There are two lines.
There are two lines.
There. Are. Two. Fucking. Pink. Lines. And. My. Life. Is. So. Completely. Fucked!
Welp. She is SUUUUUUPER pregnant and it popped up like immediately.
and the father of this baby, the man I thought I was going to marry, ran away to some nameless foreign country and never wants to talk to me again.
Oh God it hurts
Drake doesn’t love me anymore. He doesn’t want me anymore. But together, in love, we somehow created a tiny something that will grow to be a person.
She doesn’t know this yet, but he still loves you Alyssa. But I’m glad she’s making this decision like an adult, regardless of what she thinks Drake is thinking.
He took away my fucking sun.
This chapter was so hard to read, as I’m sure it was hard to write I’m anxiously waiting to see how Drake will react.
