Thank you for your words and the reminder of those circles that carry us during our dark times. You are beautifully brave, and it's because of people like you that others find the courage to share their own stories. And you have drawn a circle around me.<br /><br />Just after we lost our daughter, I also got pregnant with twins. NEVER would have expected that. But God knew what was coming.

I especially appreciate this thought: "the reason I was able to breathe at all, was AND IS because of the people in my life who show up day after day, drawing circles around me. Showing me over and over that I am not alone in whatever happens." TRUTH. So sorry for the loss of your little boy. But thank you for having the courage to share your story. THANK YOU.

I love the way you told it and how, even though I have never had this experience, I could relate acutely to your suffering--and also realize and remember that I have a lot of work to do in the way of allowing others to help me draw the circles. Truly appreciative of your honesty and craft. (And btw, I wrote a pre-messy beautiful post, too, and it sounded a lot like yours--"trembling and on the verge," as one of my favorite writers, Carole Maso, has said.) Much love to you and yours.Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17521787441689920732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2092841559910177077.post-21174710583221877932014-04-08T07:19:40.554-07:002014-04-08T07:19:40.554-07:00Such a heartbreaking, poignant story.
