I wrote a book and I am super excited to share it with you!

I lost a daughter in 2014. This was my first and only experience with a baby who was born still. I wrote about this birth experience as a guest on Heavenly Treasures. Which you can read here.

The journey through losing a baby is never ending I have learned. I lost our daughter after giving birth to two healthy children. I had had miscarriages in-between all three pregnancies (and after) but I learned, for me, there was a difference in feelings and functionality when I had our daughter. I found this to be true with many mothers who I mentored through the Grieve Out Loud penpal program also. The biggest thing I have learned through my time as a penpal, as a babyloss doula, and as a mother of loss is this: We want our babies remembered and we are tired of being swept under the rug. I have worked hard to promote infant loss awareness.

After doing a Poetry Express program with the Maine Humanities Council last summer I decided to revisit my love of poetry, which I have always had (especially as a teenager), and see what I had. I came across a few things I had written while I was in the early grieving stages of our daughter. This just kept coming. Eventually, over a few months I took the time, made a manuscript, worked hard, and here you go:
