229: I Don’t Want to Be Here Anymore After My Child Died


Listen Later

When our child dies, many of us struggle with not wanting to continue living here on earth. We want to go be with our child, even if we know in our heads there are reasons to stay, such as other children or a spouse, friends, ministries, or a job we enjoy.

How can we get past that feeling and be okay with being here (for who knows how long) without our child? In this episode, Laura shares some of the things that personally helped her through that time after her daughter, Becca died.

Today’s episode is sponsored by Richard and LaRee Lorenz, in memory of their son, Rodney Dean Lorenz.
