good and bad news

First the good news. Our second daughter in
London who's having IVF treatment has found
out she's pregnant. She had her blood HCG
level checked this morning, and the lab
phoned her later to tell her the good news.
Yippee.
The bad news is that our fourth daughter
phoned us in tears last night to say that
she's separating from her (female) partner,
after being together for 4 years. We met them
both in London for a short time a few days ago,
when they both seemed somewhat subdued. I felt
shocked and had a horrible feeling at stomach
level when I heard this news. I'm very fond
of her ex and feel sad for them both. Oh dear.
