Let’s Talk About the Baby Who Died

Let’s talk about the baby.

The baby who died.

The baby who existed.

The baby who lived before dying.

If talking about death is uncomfortable, start with talking about life.

The life of the baby who died.

And how short it was.

And how beautiful it was.

And how beautiful it would have been had it been longer.

Talk about the life of the mother whose baby died.

And how her life has changed.

And how her life hurts.

And how her life will never be the same since the life of her baby ended.

Let’s talk about life. Let’s talk about death.

Let’s talk about the baby.
