About the Book
In May of 2011, Alexa and Jeff Bigwarfe were surprised to learn they were pregnant with identical twins. By the time the shock wore off from that news, they learned the babies were suffering from a fatal disease. Over the course of 10 weeks, Alexa was hospitalized numerous times. Once the babies were born (9.5 weeks early), baby Kathryn lived 2 days before passing away in the NICU.
Fast forward 18 months. The surviving twin was doing well. A happy, well-adjusted 18-month-old.? Alexa learned her friend delivered her baby Catherine at 37 weeks, stillborn. This event set Alexa in motion to put together this beautiful book of hope, love, and support for other parents suffering pregnancy and infant loss, or even the death of an older child. She contacted other writers known in the grief and loss community, and invited them to participate.
The book includes all of their stories of loss, love, pain, grieving, support, forgiveness, and survival. It also includes a special interview with Sean Hanish, director of the incredible movie Return to Zero.
If you or someone you know has experienced the loss of a pregnancy, infant, or young child, you need this book to help heal.
