Your not alone

I lost my son tp stillbirth in April . I just now am coming to terms with my loss .After reading this book I was glad to know all the things I felt other famlies felt that way. I was not alone.Thank You is not enough after reading this book . It's the hug the book gives.

This book was a great comfort

I started to read this book because I couldnt find comfort in anything. My husband had accepted our loss but I wasnt ready. This book helped me understand how I was feeling and kept me sane. It felt so good knowing that I was not crazy and that this will take some time to get through. The paragraphs of personal comments were outstanding. I recommend this book to everyone who has lost their angel.

Excellent reading for grieving parents!

Empty Cradle, Broken Heart is an excellent resource for bereaved parents. Debra Davis takes parents step by step through the grieving process and helps them to realize that they are not alone in their pain. Reading Empty Cradle, Broken Heart helped me to recognize that my feelings were not strange and that it is okay to grieve for my daughter in my own way and in my own time. Chapters include: grieving and emotional recovery, painful feelings, affirming your baby, you and your partner, your family, and support networks. Debra encourages parents to realize that they did the best that they could for their baby. When you feel that no one understands the pain you are going through, read this book, it helps.

The best book that was ever written for a difficult time.

When we lost our son, I was almost 6 months pregnant. I had absolutely NO idea how to cope with such a tragedy. This book covered every subject that I had a question on, and some that I didn't even know I had! Many 3am readings helped save my sanity and my marriage. I cannot recommend this book strongly enough to anyone trying to deal with this in their lives.

Written for the heart of the bereaved parent

Deborah Davis did something for me that I needed...she validated my feelings about the entire ordeal my husband and I have gone through. We made the agonizing decision to induce labor to end the pregnancy after our baby was diagnosed with a terminal birth defect. I have been feeling guilt, anger, jealousy, despair, and fear about the future. Deborah Davis touches on all these issues in this book. Interjected throughout are personal testimonies from other parents who have gone through a loss, so it helps to know others have experienced the same feelings. The author also validates the fact that a loss is a loss, no matter if the baby died before birth or after. This is SO important for the reader to be told, I know it was for me.

Nothing will bring back my baby, but this book has helped me throughout my grieving and healing process. I was hesitant about which book(s) to read, but now I know that I won't need to read anything else.
