I’m very proud to say that I’ve had my first article published!
Rainbow after a storm: Baby Loss
As I approach almost 3 years of my sons birth, I also approach almost 3 years of my son’s death. Writing this article was empowering and emotional, but I hope it also gives an insight into how Bereavement Counselling can support those who have suffered a loss, but especially those who have lost a child.
When you lose a parent, you’re an orphan; when you lose a spouse, you’re a widow, but what are you when you lose a child? This really hit home. It amplifies the fact that child loss isn’t something we talk about enough. Of course nobody wants to think about the fact that children die, but in reality, they do.
My daughter is truly my rainbow. She lights up each room she enters, her smile is infectious, and I can’t wait to see how far she will shine. I have my rainbow, but I will always have the grey clouds above me after the almighty storm.
A therapist shares her journey through child loss and how grief counselling supported her healing.
