I woke this morning to a tweet from a grieving mother who’s baby went to heaven before it took it’s first breath. I often share Jeremy Camp’s song “Here With You” with people posting about losing a loved one. It’s one of the best songs I know of to share in moments like this. While typing the reply I listened to the lyrics one more time.
“I don’t how you feel
Not gonna try, my friend
Just want you to know I’m here
I’ll walk with you to the end”
They resonated with me in this instance and I felt that they applied less than they usually do. I remembered writing about my journey of thinking I would hold a new born baby and raise it as best I could but didn’t get the opportunity to. While getting the link to the article for them I discovered it’s been 10 years since part of my story was shared via the Sands website. If you haven’t read it before it’s still online even though “Sands” are now known as “Red Nose Grief and Support”.
