When my daughter died, a part of me died alongside her. 

In the depths of my grief, I felt an indescribable loneliness and pain engulf me as a whole. 

The death of a baby leaves you shattered and irreversibly transforms the essence of who you once were. As a result, you experience an irrevocable shift in your existence as the life you know has ended.

Enveloped by overwhelming grief, you may find yourself plunged into the depths of depression, secluded in anguish, haunted by anxiety, consumed by fear, utterly shattered, and burdened by guilt.

To amplify that pain, society has these taboos and stigmas around pregnancy and infant loss, further isolating you from others and discouraging you from speaking out about your pain. It can feel as though all hope has vanished.

I see you. I understand your grief and pain, for I have travelled this desolate path. The death of my daughter changed me to the core and I share in detail about my experience in my book, Heavenly Seas. 

Though I want to share that amidst the darkness, there exists another facet of grief. There is a path that leads us forward, offering opportunities to experience:

• Moments of joy
• A renewed sense of optimism
• Inner peace
• Confidence
• Restored balance
• New found hope

Hope, though fragile, still flickers, and together we can navigate the labyrinth of sorrow, emerging on the other side, where healing and solace await.
