I never knew this child fully, so why do I grieve so deeply? I never held this tiny baby, never saw the sleeping face, never locked eyes and gazed into the soul of this little person. Yet, I feel as if a part of me died and left a void in my being. most people dont seem to understand and minimize my loss instead of validating my pain from losing this nameless child. Will I always feel so lonely and misunderstood? Is it normal to mourn someone I never knew? How can I move beyond the hurt and begin to hope again? I started a book recently, Grieving the Child I Never Knew, and this is the first paragraph. I read it and just broke down. It is everything that I have been feeling since October 15th, since the day the doctor confirmed that we would never be able to meet our little angel. I am just taking it one day at a time and trying to cope with the emptiness inside of me. One day maybe I will be able to understand, or at least wrap my head around the fact, that my baby was taken too soon. But it will never stop hurting Im afraid.
