I'm still grieving.
Still grieving the loss of my fertility.
Still grieving the loss of the 'old me'
Still grieving my loss of 'old sense of femininity'
Still grieving my loss of 'old sense of motherhood'
I'm still grieving the loss of two tiny little ones.
I might be happy that something's working out for us.
I might be gaining a whole new sense of identity, sense of motherhood,
a whole new world perspective,
I might be very excited that I'm becoming a mother in 19 weeks.
I might be many things,
But I'm also, for now, still grieving....
Love and strength to others out there grieving to. xxx
Beautiful moving words. I hope you find some comfort today and can draw on others' strength until you find yours again. Take comfort in the joy that is soon to come. Much love as always xx
ReplyDeleteI found comfort in your strength, Thankyou doesn't cover it but thankyou. X
DeleteSweetie, you have the right to grieve for all those precious things that you have lost and acknowledge that they not only existed in the past, but still have a place in your heart now and in the future.
ReplyDeleteGrieving is not only about sadness, it is about remembrance.
You are also entitled to celebrate those things that bring you joy and I believe that there are some beautiful days for you ahead.
Love and strength right back at ya lovely lady (((hugs)))
Thankyou DA for this compassion and understanding. X
DeleteThis is, has been and always will be a difficult journey. But the strength, courage and tenacity you have shown throughout is an inspiration to us all. Through all of this you have come out fighting! Giving up is not an option and the fight shall continue. But the comfort we can take from it all is that the reason we continue to fight and endure such emotional heartache is for the creation of a life so beautiful and precious. We are nearly there, and throughout this journey I will continue to stand by your side and shine that light of positivity to brighten up the dark and gloomy days :) I love you x x x
