Bereavement Interviews
Grief and Loss and Healing

Bereavement interviews is the start of a new section on this site. I have long had the desire to share from a wider variety of grief stories. Although I wish I could have learned the lessons sorrow taught me in other ways, it was indeed a great teacher. This is a section to gather the wisdom of many who have walked the difficult road of grief and loss.

Andrea Row was living her dream life when her husband was tragically killed in a work accident. In her interview she tells about her own journey as well as the grief of her two preschool children on the loss of their dad.

Jason and Janelle Myers-Benner were expecting their second daughter when concern over the baby’s size arose changing an otherwise normal pregnancy into a high-risk one. Nora Lynne lived 7 months. This interview is longer than some as both Jason and Janelle agreed to respond to the questions. I find it to be a helpful reflection on how a couple worked through their grief together, honoring the other's uniqueness.

Tim Nelson is the father of a still-born daughter, Kathleen. He has written two books and speaks on what he has learned from his grief journey. He also has a blog especially for fathers who are grieving the loss of a baby.

Stacy Delisle is a mother whose first child miscarried and her second, a son named Isaac, lived only 16 minutes. She is an avid blogger and woman of strong faith. Read her story of loss and continued steps to healing.

If you would like to add your grief story to this website, you can do so at Grief Stories.

Keep checking back as more interviews will be added in the weeks to come.
