It’s been two weeks since we’ve had to say goodbye to our precious Lucy. I find myself wishing with all of my might that this is still a nightmare, a cruel joke, a lie. The loss of a child is ‘an assault on the soul’… nothing could be more true. It truly goes against the laws of nature. Our hearts ache every moment of the day, but Chris and I have decided that we will get through this, we will be okay, we will make it to the other side of this ocean of grief. We will do it for our little girl. What would we want her to observe of us as we demonstrate how to cope with the unimaginable obstacles that life can give to us? What would we hope to teach her about loss and grief if she were here? Through all of this sorrow and unfathomable pain, there is one thing that stands strong, and that is LOVE. More than the despair, the anger, the hurt, we feel love. We will carry on because we now live and love for Lucy. We will continue to love each other with all of our hearts.
