While We're Waiting® - Hope After Child Loss
This is a podcast FOR bereaved parents BY bereaved parents. Join your host, Jill Sullivan, as she talks with parents who have lost children of all ages to all types of circumstances. This is a podcast of stories ... stories of devastating loss and grief and heartbreak and struggle ... and stories of hope and healing and faith, and yes, even joy. Underlying every conversation will be the hope we have in Jesus Christ, which makes it possible to not just survive the loss of a child, but to live well while we're waiting to see them again in Heaven one day.

While We're Waiting® - Hope After Child Loss
220 | Beautifully Broken (Part Two) with Pat Elsberry
Today's episode is a continuation of my conversation with Pat Elsberry. Last week Pat introduced us to her daughter Melanie, and talked about the day she received a phone call from a police detective informing her that Melanie had been found dead in a hotel room from an accidental drug overdose. Today we discuss the brokenness she experienced in the days that followed and how she has found hope, even amid heartbreak, and we jump right in where we left off last week.
Pat Elsberry is the author of the book “Beautifully Broken – Finding Hope During Loss”. She is also a blogger and a regular contributor for an organization called “Wisdom Hunters”. She has a new book coming out this month called “Comforted by God,” which is a 100-day devotional for those who are grieving.
