I wasnt going to search it down but wow, that is very sad.

I am still reeling from the death of Robin Williams and now I find this out. I feel so unbelievably sad for Shawn and Joe. I know how excited they must have been, especially making it to almost 5 months. I pray that they find peace in their hearts and know that they are loved.

Most of all I hope that callers will respect her wishes and not offer their condolences when they speak with her on the air.

How devastating for her, I'm so sorry to hear this.

I hope it ends the horrible, malicious posts with all the theories of her absence. Like it's anyone's business.

ITA.

She's been subjected to the most viscous cruelty on these boards.

I hope her privacy and grief are shown some respect from here on out.

I'm so glad I've missed those. I get really tired of hearing "they're on TV, they put themselves out there so they have to be prepared to hear things they don't like". Really? What gives anyone the right to say cruel or nasty things about another human being? I don't care who they are. They are people, with real feelings, just like the rest of us.

I wish them lighter hearts in the days ahead, but I know they have to grieve first. My other wish for them is that they be allowed to do it as privately and peacefully as possible.

Shawn is in my thoughts and tears today.

Gentle hugs.

No wonder so many Shawn posts disappeared quickly.

Tears and prayers for Shawn and her husband. A miscarriage is a devastating loss. My heart felt condolences to Shawn and her husband.

Very well said, Reese. I've never bought the argument that somehow public figures should expect the cruelty they get just because they chose a public career. People should be ashamed, especially publishing their criticisms where the hosts and their families can read them.
