Real story...(sad)

Yesterday we were given a documentary to watch in the tut class...
Is really a sad 1... was really an emotional tut class...
'LOSING LAYLA'......
It was about a lady (Vanessa) who is in her late thirties (38 if i'm not mistaken) wanting a baby so much while her partner strongly did not want any kids...
Anyway, she got pregnant!
She filmed the whole process of wanting a baby to pregnant and until the naissance of her baby- Layla...
She was so happy and her partner was being supportive during her pregnancy period...
Everything seemed to be fine and full of happiness...
Nobody expected that this had became a sign of sadness...

Vanessa had stomach pain this day... seemed like going to labour...
Her partner sent her to the hospital with their pyjamas still on.
She had the pain for 19hours but the baby still not born yet... so she had to undergo the Caesarian to take the baby out from the womb (i wonder why the hospital did the Caesarian for her after so many hours of pain)...
The baby (Layla) finally born!
However...Layla died 8 hours later due to lung dysfunction (she had a puncture in her lung)...
Layla's dad held her in his hand until her last breath...This was really the saddest part when Layla's dad said he did not love her much in the womb, she died because she was lack of love...
Layla's body was brought back to Vanessa; she was totally breakdown... she din't even had the chance to bid farewell to her baby...

They brought Layla home and even kept her for 5 days before cremating her...
They treated her as she was still alive...bathed her...changed for her...
I was so shocked as in "her body would have smell" after so many days.... It did not smell due to certain reason and her body was kept in the fridge while at home...
It was still pain for her even after 7 months of Layla's death and she couldn't move on from her grief...
She wanted to have a happy ending so badly but unfortunately her partner and her separated 1 month later...

It was really emotional, some did cried... me, too couldn't hold the sadness...
I was thinking this is really unfair to Vanessa as she wanted to have a baby so badly...
Yet, she didn't have the chance to love her and even hold her...
