Congratulations On Your New Baby Girl What's The Best Way To Acknowledge The Birth Of A New Baby Who May Not Survive?

What's the best way to acknowledge the birth of a new baby who may not survive? - congratulations on your new baby girl

I have a friend whose wife just delivered a baby girl yesterday. She was born with only half a heart, and it is open heart surgery next week (one of many operations to come, if he survives). I congratulate you that you have a baby, but "Congratulations" does not seem fair. I would send at least one card, but I'm at a loss how I should handle it. Suggestions?

You probably send flowers instead of a simple card with a note explaining: "Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your dear little girl".
