This is not an episode I ever imagined recording, but it’s one I need to share. On January 29, 2025, my grandson, Oliver, was born sleeping at 32 weeks. 💔There are no words for this kind of loss... only waves of grief, moments of love, and a deep desire to make sure his name is never forgotten.In this episode, I share Ollie’s story, the pain of watching my daughter lose her child, and what I’ve learned about grief; especially what grieving parents need most from the people around them. If you’ve ever wondered what to say (or not say) to someone who has lost a child, I hope this helps.If you or someone you love is going through a similar loss, you’re not alone. Here are some resources that may help:💙 The Compassionate Friends – Support for families after the loss of a child (www.compassionatefriends.org)💙 Postpartum Support International (PSI) – Pregnancy & Infant Loss Support (www.postpartum.net)💙 The TEARS Foundation – Financial and emotional support for families who have lost a baby (www.thetearsfoundation.org)💙 SHARE Pregnancy & Infant Loss Support – Support groups, resources, and community for grieving families (www.nationalshare.org)Oliver was here. He mattered. And he will always be loved. Thanks for tuning in!
