How to comfort a friend?

Question

I only got the news yesterday that my friend had a miscarriage the other day. I’m so sad for her and her family but I don’t know how or what to say to her. 
What would you want to hear?

Answer

Having miscarried and having friends that have I can tell you each person needs something different. But no matter what she will need support at one point or another. Just let her know often how much you care for her and are there to help in whatever way she needs

Answer

Oh gosh, I’ve had 5 miscarriages and I will tell you I want to be left alone. You can say sorry and then I don’t want you to mention it again. I have my husband to comfort me when I need it. I didn’t want people treating me differently or being weird. Makes it harder.

Answer

Offer to do the things they won't want to right now. Take care of any existing kids, cleaning, cooking. 
Just be there

Answer

I miscarried 2 days ago and had the surgery yesterday. Every1 is trying to fly down and/or hold phone conversations. I want space. Ill accept condolences but then I want the topic dropped. Some people may need more. Saying something like I'm here if you ever need to vent or works too I guess.
