The loss of a child is unlike any other, and the impact that it has on
the mother, the father, their family, and their friends is
devastating--a shockwave of pain and guilt that spreads through their
entire community. But the majority of those affected, especially
mothers, often suffer their pain in silence, convinced that their grief
and trauma is theirs to bear alone. This anthology of raw memoirs,
heartbreaking stories, truthful poems, beautiful painting, and stunning
photography from the parents who have suffered child loss offers insight
into this unique, devastating and life-changing experience--breaking the
silence and offering a ray of hope to the many parents out there in
search of answers, understanding, and healing.;
