Not my words but I couldn’t have put it better myself

A friendly reminder that when people work up the immense courage to share about their babies gone far too soon, they do not need a trigger warning. Ever.

Your worst nightmare is our reality. It hurts. And it sucks so so so much. But what helps most of us loss parents is to share about our babies and the time we had with them, however short it may be.

The beauty of social media is that you control it - you can scroll past, hide posts, leave groups and defriend people. You also have this immense power to impact others with what words you put out there. Be kind. Period. If someone is opening themselves up to the most vulnerable part of their life and willing to share it with the world, meet them with grace. Never once has anyone here offered us anything but support and love about our loss and our sweet Clark...but in some other spaces of the internet and social media world, it hasn’t been the same. Loss sucks. And it makes people uncomfortable. But please PLEASE don’t let your uncomfortable-ness put down someone else who has churned up the courage to share something that there is so much stigma around hiding. We just want our babies’ lives, however short they may have been, celebrated and remembered. We can’t have them here with us everyday to cuddle, so sharing their memories and legacies — and sometimes photos — are all we have.
