About this ebook
Loss of anyone precious to us changes our life and perspective.
Many people misunderstand the deep loss experienced by moms and their families when a much-anticipated baby dies whether before birth, just after or day and months later.
This book was written within the first week of such a loss. It was written for those who have lost or are in the sphere of someone who has had such a devastating death.
Written by a grieving grandmother who happened to be a therapist and writer.
(Contains images and words that are not graphic but may be disturbing to some readers due to the subject matter)
