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. Visit our website at www.WhileWereWaiting.org for more information about our nonprofit ministry to bereaved parents.
While We're Waiting® - Hope After Child Loss
232 | Heartache and Hope with Melanie DeSimone
Melanie DeSimone is well-known in the bereaved parent community as the author of the blog “The Life I Didn’t Choose”, which has had over 4,000,000 hits since its inception in 2014. She writes daily … pithy, practical posts … that speak directly to the hearts of grieving parents. Over the last several months, the Lord has led her to expand her ministry beyond just writing. Today we have a wide-ranging conversation that includes the story of her son Dominic, why she began writing, where she finds herself ten years into her grief journey, and the new mission the Lord has laid on her heart.
