Dear Sibling Series – Losing Grace
https://saraneau.wordpress.com/dear-sibling-series
One couple's journey through stillbirth and the aftermath. The Dear Sibling series is a sort of sub blog…I’ve had ongoing issues with a certain sibling(and their spouse) for years…they tried to “police” my blog and upset my mom over nothing 2 years ago, it really pissed me off and was completely unnecessary… we are estranged and will stay that way (disowned! If you will)…my therapist says this is the only way for me to work this stuff out for good! Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here.

One couple's journey through stillbirth and the aftermath. You were the first person I called from the hospital when we found out Grace was dead. What a big mistake that was! You were of no comfort to me; you just kept saying that you didn’t know what to say. I invited you and your spouse to Grace’s memorial.(2013) It seemed okay at first,… Read More dear sibling #3.

One couple's journey through stillbirth and the aftermath. Am I a bad mom? I feel really guilty for not celebrating Grace’s birthday this year. Last year we had a cake and balloons; this year we were at my moms and just lit a candle. No cake, no nothing. Sometimes I forget to light a candle in her room on Sundays. I still think… Read More guilt. January 15, 2015. January 15, 2015. January 8, 2015. July 31, 2015. On letters to grace. On letters to grace. On letters to grace.

One couple's journey through stillbirth and the aftermath. Memorial day part 2. This year, Memorial Day happened to fall on my father in law’s birthday. We always grill and chill over at their place; good times are had by all. Jim didn’t go because he was ill and in bed, so I went by myself.

One couple's journey through stillbirth and the aftermath. 3 weeks from today. We ended up spending Thanksgiving with Jim’s family. We didn’t go to my moms at all. I decided to skip it for many reasons; she invited a lot of people, her place is small(which can cause a panic attack), and honestly, I didn’t feel like spending the day pretending to like some people I can’t… Read More 3 weeks from today.
