by Patrick O'Hearn (Author), Cassie Everts (Author)

Miscarriage, stillbirth, and infant loss happen more often than we realize, leaving many to suffer in isolation. This unique companion will help those grieving from child loss as they search for comfort and meaning. Couples will encounter the experiences of holy people who suffered loss, such as Sts. Louis and Zélie Martin, St. Gianna Molla, and Servant of God Chiara Corbella Petrillo. Parents will also receive hope and consolation from firsthand stories of modern-day parents who have experienced similar losses.

In these moving and cathartic pages, you will explore:

  • The importance of being patient with yourself in recovering from your trauma
  • Ways to eliminate triggers and find solace in your pain
  • The essence of mourning and the significance of even the briefest life
  • How to find God amid your sufferings and begin to trust again
  • Ten things not to say to someone who is grieving the loss of a child
  • Four ways family and friends can support those who are suffering

Along with beautiful prayers, such as "Blessing of Parents after a Miscarriage or Stillbirth" and "Order for the Naming of an Infant Who Died before Birth," and various Scripture passages and novenas, this book provides reflections and practical wisdom for pastors, family, and friends to help those grieving the loss of a child to find healing. By journeying with others who share your grief, you will find new courage and hope as you await the joyful reunion with your child in Heaven.
