Grieving Parents Sharing Hope

200: Six Pitfalls of Grief


Listen Later

We will face pitfalls on this unwanted grief journey after the death of our child. The valley of the shadow of grief is real and it is big. There can be many different feelings and emotions while on this unwanted journey.

Some of those are:

  1. Fear
  2. Depression and anxiety
  3. Longings and triggers
  4. Regret
  5. Loneliness and isolation
  6. Thinking I can't go on without my child here
  7. In today's episode, Laura talks about each of these, based on something written by pareavor Libby, Brady's mom.
