Dominic DeSimone was a young man with a smile that could light up a room.   He was an active, athletic child who grew into a talented musician with the ability to play any stringed instrument and had a special gift for percussion.  He was nearing the end of his second year of law school when he ran ahead to Heaven as a result of a motorcycle accident.  In today's episode, Jill talks with his mom Melanie, who encourages thousands of bereaved parents daily through her blog, "The Life I Didn't Choose."  Join us for a conversation about Dom, the blog, the upcoming holidays, and how we can live this life we didn't choose.

Melanie refers to our closed While We're Waiting -- Support for Bereaved Parents Facebook group during our conversation.  That group can be found by clicking here.
