Lucy's blog

On July 20, 2009, I lost my baby.

When you lose a child, it's a strange, painful process, unique to each family, and perhaps to each individual. There's a difference, I think, between losing your infant and losing an adult who is close to you. I can't explain it, I can't explain the hole left by Lucy's leaving, except to tell you that it's strange. It's surreal. I am going on seven days without my child and it hasn't started to make sense, perhaps it never will.

I have another blog, but I felt like it was better to put stuff about Lucy's death here, rather than there. I have two living children to consume the other blog. This one is just for Lucy.
