I soaked my pillow with tears after reading my friend Matt's status. He lost his wife a few weeks ago after complications with the birth of their fourth child - and it's heartbreaking and my heart grieves for him.
He continues to praise God and he expresses his hurt every once in a while on facebook and I just hurt for him. He called this situation his nightmare and I agree - and I wish there was something we could do to help with the pain.
I don't know how to pray for him besides for strength and peace and I'm thankful that the Bible tells us that the Spirit groans with words we can't express. I'm glad the Holy Spirit can pray for me for him because sometimes there is nothing but hurt and tears in my heart and I don't know what to say except expose the pain to God and cry.

That is SO sad. We'll continue to pray for him as well. :/
I noticed your fb posts on this heartbreaking situation a couple of weeks ago. I too have been remembering him and their children in my prayers. A similar situation touched my life a few years ago, and whenever I think about it, I lift up the family in prayer and hug my kids a little tighter.
