The Disclaimer

November 11, 2016November 12, 2016 missinglink151 Comment

I started to type out an email.  It had been a long time since we talked and so much has happened.  I am so different now:  “What you need to know about me is, I talk about Lincoln a lot. My son died and it has shaped me.  My life revolves around death; and until… Continue reading The Disclaimer

A Life of Nevers

October 24, 2016October 24, 2016 missinglink152 Comments

Over the weekend, I traveled out of town to visit my parents.  My mom did some of her Christmas shopping and wanted to show me what she had gotten.  She hand-picked items for each of her seven living grandchildren: warm beanies and silly toys for the boys, and some fluffy socks for the girls. And… Continue reading A Life of Nevers

Just Have a Day

October 14, 2016October 14, 2016 missinglink153 Comments

The day that I held Lincoln in my arms, I slowly and painfully, got up and went into the hospital bathroom to clean up a little bit.  I had been on IV fluids for roughly 32 hours and, between labor and the trauma of losing my son, I had not slept soundly in over 55 hours.  I… Continue reading Just Have a Day

God’s Perfect Timing

September 30, 2016October 1, 2016 missinglink151 Comment

*introduction: As you struggle through your own grief journey, I understand that the subject of God can be a touchy one.  That being said, this subject has been a very large, and painful part of my journey.  Therefore, it is important for me to share it honestly.  If you don’t relate to this part of… Continue reading God’s Perfect Timing

The Disappearing Act

September 28, 2016October 30, 2016 missinglink152 Comments

From the moment that I announced my pregnancy, everyone had an opinion.  Boy or girl. What I was eating.  Was I drinking coffee. Which doctor did I choose.  Would we circumcise.  Would I choose natural childbirth.  New life is exciting. People who didn’t even know me, talked to me about my baby.  Sometimes it was… Continue reading The Disappearing Act

Strength in Pain

September 27, 2016October 30, 2016 missinglink151 Comment

I started hearing it almost immediately.  Even before I got discharged from the hospital.  Even before I had recovered enough to return to work.  Even before I brought my son home in an urn.  “You’re so strong.”   In the earliest months, these words held very little meaning for me.  Strong?  Me?  I could barely… Continue reading Strength in Pain

Life is Unfair

September 24, 2016October 30, 2016 missinglink15Leave a comment

The little things can stir so much inside me.  I was driving home.  A mom was standing at a crosswalk, waiting for her light.  Her 8 year old daughter was standing next to her, talking away.  Her baby was in a stroller, the sun directly in her eyes.  The wheels were angled toward the busy… Continue reading Life is Unfair
