Miscarriage and God's Smallest Angels
As people coping with infertility our ultimate goal is the conception and birth of a beautiful healthy baby. But what do we do when something goes wrong? As hard as we try to do everything by the book and follow all of the pregnancy "rules" there are some things that are out of our control. Miscarriage and the loss of an infant is every parents nightmare especially after thinking we might never get pregnant at all. Where do you turn to cope? Where do you go with your grief? How do you make people understand that miscarriage is the loss of an already loved child? I found several resources out on the web to help in dealing with miscarriage and the loss of a child.
Hannah's Prayer has some wonderful links and guidance for those dealing with the loss of a child. One way they offer comfort and support is through Prayer Email Pals. Prayer Email Pals offers a chance to correspond with other women who have coped or are coping with the same loss. This site offers hope, comfort and advice through informative links to support groups and services.
The Weartz Family Home Page is the story of a family who has dealt with the pain of infertility and the loss of a child. Amazingly they still have hope and they find joy in the short time they had their child.Thier Story is one of sadness, hope, and joy which they openly share with us. I brought tears to my eyes to read of her struggle and sadness. What shocked me though was her hopefulness. After what she has gone through she is still hopeful she will have her child. She says she "knows God has a plan for her and hopes that she will see it soon".
Spiritual Healing is a speech given by a father on healing after tremendous loss. This father has found healing through God after the loss of his two sons. It is an inspiring and humbling lesson from several sections in the Bible on why God lets bad things happen how we can get through them, and how God can heal our emotional wounds. This man had every right to pull into himself and turn away from everything. Instead he looked into the scripture and found strength and healing. It may take time and we may not like all the answers God gives us but healing will take place and this father's speech is a wonderful guide on where to look for this spiritual healing.
