The one thing I used to think about grief pre-loss was that people just get over it eventually.

That time will heal all and one day you just wake up and you’ve moved on.

But the truth is, grieving never goes away.

It's more than losing a baby. It’s losing a whole life time of dreams and memories we never got to make.

It’s losing the child we never got to know. a friendship between siblings we never got to witness. a teenager we never got to comfort. an adult we never got to be proud of.

If you’ve ever had the thought, "why are they are still talking about it when its been (enter time frame)” know that you are absolutely blessed for not knowing the answer to that question.

Grief is a life long journey. And you are valid to grieve in any way you want to for the rest of your life 🖤
