Profile Information

About Me:
I am a 25 yr old mother of two year old twins. I have been married for almost 4 yrs. I am a stay at home mama & wife. I have kidney disease. I love my family more with every new day I am given by the grace of God. I don't have many friends but am extremely close with my mama.
About my Loss:
Three years ago this march I lost my first son. He passed away after birth due to very rare heart and kidney problems. I've tried dealing w/ the loss on my own and I can't. My youngest brother just got deployed to afghanistan a little over a week ago. I have been terrified of losing more people in my life since the loss of my son. So now w/ my brother, I am already overwhelmed w/ grief. I can't eat or stop crying out of fear. I am also 4 1/2 months pregnant w/ my fourth son so I need to be strong and healthy for him. I just need help.

the second way is through our forum, http://anchoredbyhope.lefora.com/ we are just starting out, so it's easier to keep up with everyone there.
the third way is through the live online support meetings. Just go to the main website and email us through that, and we can give you more info on those too. I think you would really benefit from the study. I know it changed my life. It gave me a clearer vision of which direction i wanted to go. But in the meanwhile, you can still keep in touch with us through the blogs, which I definately recommend you make one of those.

I'm glad to share those sites with you. This was really going to just be an outlet for me to direct people to the sites that my dear friend Katy and I manage together. The best 3 places to connect with other moms (including katy and I) is through:
http://butterflymommies.blogspot.com/ - which is a directory of mothers who have lost children, all by different ages gestationally from early on to many days or weeks after birth. This might be a way for you to start collecting entries for a book,

I lost both of my parents (mom when I was ten, dad when i was 22), and two children during pregnancy. I definately understand the things that can trigger grief, especially during a pregnancy after a loss. I was a complete mess for the nine months I was pregnant for my last child. Suddenly the fun & naivity of not knowing got replaced with every possible 'what if'. Keep in touch... Lovingly in Christ, Kristie

Hi Miriam, I wanted to tell you that I am happy to keep in touch. In fact, if you would like, one of my close friends and I have a site where we host live online grief support Bible studies, and also this March we'll be starting our first live online monthly support group. We have a forum, just for pregnancy and infant loss, plus we each have our own blogs and links to other women's blogs that are all about losses of varying stages. Let me know what you are interested in and I can send you those specific links, otherwise if you would just like to explore those things, our site is www.anchoredbyhope.com

"Kali I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal. Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More

Being the Other Woman/Other Man

This is for anyone who has lost their lover to death and you were the other woman/other man in their life. We have to grieve in silence. I can't find any support groups and feel like I'm the only one going through this situationSee More
