Wednesday's Woe
Child-Loss Grief and Trauma
Throws You Back In Time...
~Tommy and Angie Prince
In grieving Merry Katherine, we have noticed in our Loss-of-Child Grief and Trauma, this Grief is unlike anything we have ever experienced.
When we are so much in the throes of grief, as such intense grief is occurring, it feels like the devastating emotion will never end...
We are thrown back in time...
To as far back as the day we first found out...
Day One.
Ground Zero.
...We become debilitated and upset to the degree that we feel we will never come out of it again.
(And indeed, at some deep level in our bodies and souls, we never will completely come out of our deep sadness.)
But reprieves do come.
You just cannot envision such devastating emotion ever letting up as you are going through it.
All time melts away to nothing,
and you are Back There...
facing that Stark Reality in all its force:
My child is GONE.
Our world,
STOPPED.
Our hearts,
BROKEN.
