Try listening to her, not fixing her – October 15th

October 15, 2019 By katbiggie Leave a Comment

The worst day of my life was December 12, 2011, when I held my 2-day-old daughter as her last breath left her body. The doctor prepared us at her anatomy scan at 20-weeks gestation that she would likely not survive, but I held fast to hope over the next 10 weeks until she was born, that […]

It’s OK to still be sad, mama

December 12, 2018 By katbiggie 1 Comment

Today marks 7 years since my Kathryn breathed her last breath in my arms. She was two days old. But those two days changed everything for us. For me. For my future. I still cry. I cried today when I posted the only picture I have of me holding my sweet baby girl. I still […]

Let Them Grieve

June 15, 2016 By katbiggie 31 Comments

grief, child loss, death of child

My husband hit it right on the head today. “I hate the way the media spins things! Talking about how the dad JUST suffered minor cuts and scrapes!” He was, of course, referring to the father who bravely went into the water and tried to rescue his son from a 7-8 foot alligator. Whether he […]

How to Help a Grieving Family over the Holidays

December 21, 2015 By katbiggie 2 Comments

The holidays can be difficult for anyone, but especially if you’ve just lost a child, a sibling, a parent. Everything can make you sad.
