Nothing quite as vulnerable as putting your phone at an unflattering angle and wearing no bra to journal about your child that you lost too soon. My baby girl was four months old when I lost her. As someone who understands that some people cannot bear children of their own, I am very grateful for the time I got with her. That doesn’t mean it hurts any less. Grief is like a roller coaster that never ends, it seems like you go through the cycles over and over again. Some years I’m angry, some years. I’m more sad, some years I can find the strength to be grateful. Being surrounded by people who love me has helped tremendously, but no one quite understands fully. I just want anyone out there who does not have the support system that I have to know that you are not alone and whatever emotions you are feeling about it are 100% valid. Love is the only way.
