What to say? What to do? How to help?


I'm not sure if this is the right section to post this question, but i have friend who has PCOS and her and her hubby have been unable to conceive naturally, so they have been undergoing IVF. I think this was their third round. Anyway, she found out on Thursday the embryos didn't take again, and it just broke her. She started crying and told me what happened when I had how things have been going. She wasn't mad that I asked, but now I don't know what I can do for her or what I can say. I want to do something nice for her, but am unsure of what. Does anyone have any suggestions or advice? I don't want to do or say the wrong thing, but seeing her so broken breaks my own heart ...thanks in advance.

I guess just be there for her as a friend.... But I think you could always send her some flowers just saying Thinking of you.... That could give her a pick-me-up....

Do you live near her? Maybe you could help out around the house, cooking,cleaning,etc. This sounds weird, but I wish I had someone who could help me keep up with my hair.

Good ideas, I was thinking along the lines of something girlie, getting nails done or something of the sort. I also thought about baking something of cooking something for her. Thanks for the replies ladies!

Do something together with her, just the two of you and let her know how you feel for her.
