I Couldn’t Save Her: Losing My Daughter Changed Everything


Listen Later

Debbie Waffle built a life filled with joy, purpose, and hope—but nothing could prepare her for what came next. Her daughter Kelsey’s medical challenges grew more complex over time, leaving Debbie desperate for answers and overwhelmed with fear. And when Kelsey died, the grief nearly consumed her.


On what would have been Kelsey’s birthday, Debbie speaks with Heather about the deep unraveling that comes with losing a child—the guilt, the heartbreak, and the silence that follows. Through raw reflection and hard-earned wisdom, she shares how grief reshaped every part of her life… and how she’s slowly learning to hold space for both sorrow and strength.
