Healing through connection and finding strength in community.

When I talk about normalizing pregnancy loss, a huge point in doing this work is so that women can find each other. When someone tells their story, others are more likely to share theirs as well. This creates connection and then it beautifully and subtly creates community. One by one women are sharing their stories. They are sharing their feelings, thoughts, and everything in between. Loss changes our entire worlds, it devastates our old selves and most of us turn into even better versions of ourselves. THis doesn’t mean we have stopped grieving or moved on, it simply means we have the courage to live beside it or with it. Losing Evelyn made me realize how much of a community we had in Lake Stevens, in our military community outside base. I had women and families bring us food and gifts and offer support, women who were not even considered friends, maybe acquaintances. They all took on this role of superwomen and I cannot tell you enough that they saved me. Knowing that so many are thinking of you, so many are quietly thinking of you and sending you love and prayers and hope. It is a powerful force that I think is lacking in our communities.
