KirchinK: January 2012
http://kirchink.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
The tragedies and triumphs of the Zink Kirchners. I remember you, Figaro. Figaro became my best friend from the start, and she was completely attached to me. I remember having a bunch of people over from a church group for the first time and I couldn’t get Figgy to leave the side of my leg. Over the years, she came to know and love a bunch of our friends though. When Emily and I got married I had to change our sleeping arrangement. Figaro was used to sleeping on the bed next to me for the first four ...

KirchinK: A year ago...the 15th part 2
http://kirchink.blogspot.com/2009/09/year-agothe-15th-part-2.html
The tragedies and triumphs of the Zink Kirchners. A year ago.the 15th part 2. We got to the hospital, and when they wheeled me to the triage room, I had to wait by the door. A nurse finally asked, "Can I help you? And I said "Yes, please.". I tried to tell people that I was in labor, but I didn't really care about that, because I hadn't felt the baby move. But again, they just didn't get it. And since I didn't want to believe it, I let it go. I looked up at Matt, and he looked at me, and I knew. But he r...

The tragedies and triumphs of the Zink Kirchners. A year ago.the 19th. A year ago today, I had a funeral for my stillborn baby boy. I remember trying to plan the funeral, and being unable to find any hymns or praise songs that dealt adequately with my pain. I remember someone suggesting songs, and being appalled at how happy the songs were. I remember asking someone to cover the windows at the church so that it was dark inside. Links to this post. A year ago today.the 16th. At that point, it seemed like ...

The tragedies and triumphs of the Zink Kirchners. A cruel and wicked world. Matt didn't really understand my fear- he was excited to drive me to the hospital. I didn't understand my fear- I had no idea a baby could die that late in pregnancy. We got to the hospital and I just wanted them to find the heartbeat. They never did. Desmond's Name in the Sand. Welcome to our blog. A voice is heard in Ramah,. Weeping and great mourning,. Rachel weeping for her children. And refusing to be comforted,. 5 years on ...

KirchinK: September 2010
http://kirchink.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
The tragedies and triumphs of the Zink Kirchners. The first year, Matt and I focused on grief exclusively. We dove head first into the pain. We met with a couple once a week to process every pain. We met with a counselor who gave us official permission to grieve as we needed to, to let some things in life go, like our church, and to cling to other things, like our friends and family. And fear. The knowledge of how quickly life can be snatched, and in how many different ways, brings fear. The know...How d...
