A mother's heart is shattered and forever changed when she loses a precious baby. Overwhelmed by sadness, she feels abandoned by God, questions his goodness, and wonders how she will move forward in life while in such deep pain. Ashley Opliger, founder of Bridget's Cradles, wrestled with these same things when her daughter, Bridget, was born into heaven at twenty-four weeks. Amid her anguish, she found faith in God to not only heal her heart, but to change her life—and the lives of others.

You're not alone in mourning—it's possible to move past the denial, start the healing, and memorialize your beloved pet, even if the pain of loss feels overwhelming. Losing a pet can feel like losing a member of your family. Their absence leaves an ache in your heart that may seem impossible to heal. Do you continually find yourself asking, "Why is this so hard?" Are you desperate to explain your pet's loss to your child, but you just can't find the right words? Do you yearn to hold onto their memory, yet unsure how to keep their spirit alive?

When death touches your family, you are never quite prepared. Complicating your personal pain and the need to grieve is the equally important task of helping your children understand and process the loss of a loved one. How should you answer your child's questions about death? Should you let them see you cry? How can you support their resilience? How can you help preserve memories? Drawing from their own personal and professional experience, Erin Nelson and Colleen Montague help you navigate loss alongside your child.
