What has helped you feel less alone in your grief?

@mbixler Thank you for trusting us with such a personal part of your journey. Based on my own experience with pregnancy loss, I remember how easy it was to question everything and wonder what I could have done differently. Those questions can weigh so heavily on our hearts. Over time, I found peace in my faith, but I also learned that everyone's grief journey is unique.
Your mother-in-law's quiet presence and words of hope are such a beautiful reminder that we don't always need the perfect words—we just need someone willing to sit beside us in our pain. You shared such a beautiful gift your mother-in-law gave you. Have you found yourself sharing that same hope with anyone else who has experienced pregnancy loss?
Wrapping you in prayers. 💜
Dawn

@dawn_giacabazi I have passed her message on to others who have experienced miscarriage, and in one case the loss of a young child from cancer. I always tell them that it was a loving message from my Mother-in-law, that gave me comfort at a time when I was drowning in grief. It was a light at the end of a long dark tunnel of grief, the knowledge that God was now holding my child in his loving arms until I could get there. I’m not sure how much this message helped them, because as you said, each person grieves differently. I also want to say that people forget that the father who suffered this loss, is also grieving and in need of support. A lot of people focused on my loss, not realizing that he was mourning as well.
