While We're Waiting® - Hope After Child Loss

73 | A Story of Barely Breathing (Part One) with Daphne Greer


Listen Later

"Spunky and vibrant" are the words Lydia's mom, Daphne Greer, uses to describe her.   She loved shopping, going to concerts, and creating art.   Life changed in the blink of an eye in the summer of 2008 when a car accident took 5-year-old Lydia to Heaven, leaving Daphne riddled with guilt and feeling as though her life was over.   Over time, as God began to mend her broken heart, she wrote a book titled "Barely Breathing - 10 Secrets to Surviving the Loss of Your Child", and we discuss that in our conversation today.  Today's episode includes Lydia's story and the first four "secrets" in her book.  Be sure to come back next week for the conclusion of our conversation.
