better yet… Just listen to her.. if it goes quiet, comfort her, but kind of keep it going by asking small inocent questions. The more she gets off her chest the better. but dont intrude, let her talk about it at her pace and just be supportive and comforting.

tell her that even now that she regrets it, at the time that she did what was right for her,and she made a responsible decision, whether that sounds heartless, i don’t know,but it’s true. perhaps she panicked when she found out she was pregnant? i would just be there for her and even though it hurts, ask her to discuss it more whenever she wants to talk rather than letting her keep it all bottled up inside.

Help me with: does anyone know a good way to start a farewell speech?

All of the above comments are so true. Let her talk it out and just be there to listen. Put your arm around her and comfort her as much as you can.

Yeah what everyone said and remember she might not have anything she can express with just words
