Day 12: Article
Oct 12, 2013
I've read many, many articles on grief from everything to the pamphlet they handed me in the hospital to blogs and websites like Still Standing. Most of the articles I've read have been specifically targeted towards parents who have lost children, although grief of any kind runs a similar course. My blog became a complication of what I read in conjunction with what I was experiencing and feeling.
Today's image is a very rarely seen one that was just recently shared with me via a friend that was with us in the hospital. He snapped this shot of my husband and Nolan in the hospital because it was such a powerful image of grief to him at the time. He has held on to this image until this month when I started my 30 day grief project. He decided it was finally an appropriate time to share it with me and I'm so glad he did.
Nolan Eason
At 1:03AM on Friday, March 30, 2012 my first child was born - a son. We named him Nolan Eason. 21" long, 5lb 3oz. He was beautiful and perfect in every way, except that he was stillborn. As we searched for answers to his untimely death, we also searched for comfort. This blog was created as a way of working through my sorrow by trying to find something beautiful in the world each day. Hopefully, along the way it will help others to heal as well.
