Sunshine After the Storm: A Survival Guide for the Grieving Mother

Dear mama, You are not alone. Losing a pregnancy, infant, or older child can feel so isolating. People can say terrible things and expect you to recover immediately. Grief works on its own timeline. This book of stories from mothers (and fathers) will remind you that others know what you're experiencing. We've got you! Have you recently suffered a miscarriage, delivered a baby stillborn, lost an infant, or an older child? This book is the comfort and encouragement that you need to get you through the darkest of days. Mothers who have actually experienced these horrible events share their best tips and encouragement and resources to help mothers who are trying to pick themselves up after the death of a child, loss of an infant, or miscarriage. You will hear directly from them - how they survived, what helped, what didn't help, the dumb things people said, how they grieved with their other children, and more. This book will be the virtual hug you need from other mothers who know your pain and understand that it's not something you can just move on, or "get over" in a few weeks, months, and sometimes years. The book includes all of their stories of loss, love, pain, grieving, support, forgiveness, and survival. It also includes a special interview with Sean Hanish, director of the incredible movie Return to Zero.
