Open Bereavement
Type: Loss of a ChildI lost my 1st daughter to Trisomy 18. She was 16 mths when she went to heaven. She has been gone for 13 yrs, but there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of her. I have also lost my mother-in-law. It was very sudden. She has been gone for 10 yrs now, but it is very hard to watch your children grow up without their grandma. She didn't get to meet her grandson, and her granddaughter looks just like her. My husband still has bad days. I guess you never get over losing someone.
Treatments
- Prayer Working / Worked
- I thank God everyday for the time I had with Stephanie. I know I will see her again someday!
