Today I got a message from a friend that gave me another perspective. She said something along the lines of...thank you for being honest and open, helping me to know how to pray for you AND to have a greater understanding of what you and others in your situation are going through... I thought, "hey that's cool. Not only is this helping her know how to pray and help me but she is also able to apply it to others when the time comes."
So I thought I'd just say, if you know of someone (a friend, aunt, grandma etc) who wants to know what their bereaved mama feels like so they can better minister to them by all means share my blog with them.
Not that every one grieves the same way because they most certainly don't. But because mamas who loose their babies often go through similar things. Things like:
-Freaking out that the house is gonna burn down and all tangible memories will be lost (which is why I got a fireproof box)
-worry about their spouses life being taken away
-every car is out to get you and wreck into you
-keeping something that reminds you of your baby on you at all times
Just to name a few.
Eventually I want to blog about some of the other things in more detail that I (and I know other mamas whom have lost) worry or think about.
Anyway, it's just a thought I had today and I was encouraged at the thought of other people who haven't directly lost know how to help someone they care about.
