When someone we love passes away, how can we find the embers of wisdom within the ashes of loss? What are the lessons to be learned? And why can’t the process be more straightforward or defined?   

This very personal story on loss, grief, and hope comes to us from Rachel Woodbury. She and her husband went through something most parents fear--the passing away of a child. And though every story like this is painfully unique, there are a few patterns that tie them together. So if you’re navigating your own difficult journey, or know someone who is, our hope is that what Rachel learned can help you too.
