Infant Loss - Winnipeg

Infant Loss - Winnipeg Losing a child is devastating. If you, or someone you really love, needs some support we’d love to talk with you. We wish you peace. We all feel the same sadness.

The emotional after-effects are life changing. This is true for those of us who have lost a child to SIDS, or have had a miscarriage, or a child stillborn. And it is true for us who have lost a child through abortion. We all feel the same helplessness. We all feel the same despair. It’s confusing and sad, but sometimes our own family and friends will try and minimize our loss by telling us that ‘w

e can have another child’, or that ‘we are young’, or that ‘the child was early in development’. This never really helps. It’s hard for people to see us in pain. We think that people sometimes say things because they don’t know what else to say. They feel uncomfortable with our sadness, so they try to make it go away. For those of us who have had an abortion, the confusion is even bigger. Some people tell us that our baby wasn’t really ‘a baby’. But our bodies and minds and emotions know better. Some people tell us that we shouldn’t feel bad after an abortion. But our inside emptiness is still there, we know the truth. Of course we will feel sad after an abortion. Of course we will cry and wonder. The people at our centre understand this sadness. We understand because many of us have lived through the loss of a child. Many of us have had an abortion.

Grief can be so isolating and lonely... especially during the holiday season. Check in on your grieving friends. You don't have to try to fix their heartache or sadness...
Sometimes just knowing they're in your thoughts can be a gift that adds a little sparkle back into their lives.

The truth about grief is that it never asks for permission.
It will crash into your chest in the middle of a grocery store, on a random weekday, in the car when that one song that reminds you of them comes on, even years after they leave this earth.

It may soften... but it never disappears.

Because when someone you love becomes memory, grief becomes your shadow. And you learn to walk with both.

"People rush to get rid of grief because they see it as hanging onto loss. But grief is really hanging onto love- which is why you always feel it."
