A Day to Remember

February 18, 2018 Leave a Comment

Today is February 18th.  It was 33 years ago that my mom gave birth to and lost my 2 brothers on the same day.  They were born too early to survive in this world.  I have always known it was hard on my mom, hard on both of my parents.  I have always felt pain for my mom every year when she cannot help but relive that day.  I felt pain because I knew she was experiencing pain, not because I knew how it felt.

Being someone who has had difficulty getting pregnant, I told her I now feel her pain out of experience, experience in a different way.  She grieves the loss of what she had and lost.  I grieve for what I don’t yet have.  We both grieve.  I understand more fully and I feel her pain even more.

For those who have lost children, had miscarriages, or have unmet longings like me, know that I am thinking of you today and praying for your pain.

I just wanted to share that today.  Much love ?
