Episode Synopsis

On todays podcast we talk about how family and friends can support the bereaved parent. We give advice on  what to do and what not to do and the reason behind it. One thing I forget to mentioning todays podcast  is that it is unhelpful when parents complain about their living children to grieving families . For a bereaved parent they would truly cut off a limb to have those experiences that others complain about. It is important to recognize your audience and think before speaking so that you don't cause greater pain.  Stillbirth and  infant loss are taboo topics that are often overlooked in society. As a result these who care about the bereaved parents often do not know how to help or respond. My hope is that this episode will help shed light on how to support those grieving one of lives greatest losses and open the door to having the conversations needed to best support, love and be there for those going through the unimaginable pain of losing their precious baby.
