This episode features Hannah Scott, (King's College London, Florence Nightingale Faculty of Nursing Midwifery and Palliative Care, Cicely Saunders Institute, London, UK)   What is already known about the topic? Person-centred outcome measures have been shown to improve the quality of care and patient outcomes in adult palliative care when successfully implemented into routine care. Several factors influence implementation in adult services, but they have not been identified in care for children with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions. The views of stakeholders are key to successful development, implementation and use of outcome measures in practice.   What this paper adds? Perceived benefits of using person-centred outcome measures include enhanced understanding of what matters to patients and families, improved communication and collaborative working and standardised data collection and reporting; perceived risks include negative impacts on care and measures not being used as intended. Potential barriers to implementation include acceptability and usability of the measure for children, burden and capacity of patients and families to complete the measure, privacy concerns, protecting family members and language barriers; potential facilitators include explaining the benefits of person-centred outcome measures and securing ‘buy-in', measures being implemented by known and trusted health and social care staff and the language in the measure being meaningful to children and families. Eight recommendations are presented to minimise risks and support successful implementation of child and family-centred outcome measures for children with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions.   Implications for practice, theory, or policy The benefits of person-centred outcome measures for care should be explained to children, families and professionals to facilitate buy in and successful implementation. Implementation strategies should be designed collaboratively with professionals to ensure implementation of person-centred outcome measures is feasible within current practice and does not impact negatively on care. Professionals introducing and administering the measure should be known and trusted by the child and family, and should discuss usage preference and information sharing to address any privacy concerns.     Full paper available from:     https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/02692163241234797   If you would like to record a podcast about your published (or accepted) Palliative Medicine paper, please contact Dr Amara Nwosu:  a.nwosu@lancaster.ac.uk

There's this moment in every parent of a rare or medically complex kid's life, where you suddenly realize that the medical team you're working with doesn't know everything and might not know how to make the best medical decision for your child. It's terrifying... but it also feels a little bit like a rite of passage by now, and you can only hope that the way you find this out isn't through pain and trauma for your child.  In Alyssa's case, her daughter and her family weren't so lucky. In this episode, Alyssa Nutile, mom (and also producer for this podcast!), shares the traumatic story of Gemma's first few weeks of life, from a misdiagnosis, multiple unnecessary brain surgeries, and a lot of doctor conflict. This lost time and unneeded pain cuts especially deep, considering her daughter has a life-limiting prognosis.  Alyssa also shares how, despite everything, she's found a way to work with her daughter's medical team, albeit much more cautiously. And, at the end, she tells her side of the story for how she started working for Madeline and The Rare Life!   Finally, a big thanks to our sponsor for this episode, Functional Formularies!  Links:  Visit the Functional Formularies website for more tube-fed formula options!  Listen to Ep 19: The Story of Claire for another perspective on life-limiting diagnoses.  Listen to Ep 125: Traveling with Disabled Kids w/Alyssa Nutile.  Listen to Alyssa's podcast Caffeinated Caregivers.   Follow Alyssa on Instagram @caffeinated_caregivers!  Follow us on Instagram @the_rare_life!  Donate to the podcast or Contact me about sponsoring an episode.  Fill out our contact form to get a reminder about upcoming discussion meetings and the Skype link to join!  Access the transcript on the website here.   And if you love this podcast, please leave us a rating or review in your favorite podcast app!

This episode features Hannah May Scott (Florence Nightingale Faculty of Nursing Midwifery and Palliative Care, Cicely Saunders Institute, King's College London, London, UK).   What is already known about the topic? - Although spiritual concerns are recognised as a core component of palliative care for children, there is a paucity of primary data. - Self-report data from children is rare, and existing evidence is largely proxy data from parents or health and social care professionals and mainly focused on the religious aspect of spiritual care for cancer patients.   What this paper adds? - Specific spiritual concerns among children with a range of life-limiting and life-threatening conditions and their families (parents and siblings) included: living life to the fullest, meaning of life and leaving a legacy, uncertainty about the future, determination to survive, accepting or fighting the future and role of religion. - This work broadens understanding of the spiritual domain for these children beyond religious needs to existential and value-based spiritual concerns. - Recognition of the way in which children conceptualise spirituality and being able to identify their spiritual concerns is essential for child- and family-centred holistic palliative and end-of-life care.   Implications for practice, theory, or policy - Professionals can optimise children and family's wellbeing through identification of the things that provide meaning for them, and working together to set goals and actions towards achieving them. - Such concerns must be assessed beyond religious considerations. - Simple tools and training to support professional may be useful in implementing this.  Full paper available from:    https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/02692163231165101  If you would like to record a podcast about your published (or accepted) Palliative Medicine paper, please contact Dr Amara Nwosu: a.nwosu@lancaster.ac.uk

"When God doesn't give a miracle..." Monica Harris joins me for this episode to share her motherhood journey and her experience receiving a life-limiting diagnosis for her son Vance as well as the news that she and her husband were carriers for a genetic condition that could result in a similar diagnosis in future children. At the time of our recording Monica was 37 weeks pregnant with a daughter who was also given a difficult diagnosis – prayerfully not a diagnosis that would limit life but difficult and complex nonetheless. Knowing this makes my time with Monica and her words that much more powerful – when she talks about what it looked like to pray for a miracle and for God to not give that miracle– about this she says: “He's good God, but He's not always going to say yes.” and we talked about her pregnancy right now, she said this: “I like to be in control, but this time I have no control. Just praying and believing that God will take us through whatever comes.”  We spend some time talking about: what it was like to receive that life-limiting diagnosis for her son Vance how to navigate when the plan you have for your family doesn't turn out the way you had ever imagined navigating a pregnancy after loss navigating the medical aspect to a life-limiting diagnosis and high risk pregnancy after loss friendships after loss what she wishes others knew about grief and how to help a mom who is grieving.  This is a beautifully tender and honest interview with a mom who is still in a season of waiting, of anticipating, of navigating the unknown but her faith will encourage you – I know it encouraged me.

They were given a couple weeks to decide whether to terminate the pregnancy or continue with the expectation that she could pass at any time. They were told if she made it to delivery, she could live a few minutes or a few hours. Sabrina said, " I could not make the decision to terminate her life, so we put it in God's hands, and we hoped to get some time with our daughter alive.

Crystal Webster is the (co)founder of Sharing Solace, author of ‘Confessions of a Griever', creator of the ‘Feel Your &*@#% Feels' Experience, speaker, mentor, entrepreneur, and most importantly she is Madelyn Elizabeth Webster's mama. Crystal and Kyle were given devastating news after a 32 week ultrasound that their baby was not going to live. They were given 3 choices: Go across state lines and have a very late term termination, be induced then or continue the pregnancy as long as possible and hope she would be born alive. During the next 19 days Crystal said the social worker was very helpful and the family "circled the wagons. When Madelyn died in Crystal's arms just hours after she was born, she wanted to die too. Crystal shared that it took her years to learn to live again – mostly because she realized her Madelyn wouldn't want her to live the rest of her life waiting to die. During that time they learned that Madelyn's condition was genetic and they did not want to pass it on to other children so they attempted to have another child through IVF and embryo testing with no success. She said we went through several lifetimes of emotions and several lifetimes of grief in those 4 or 5 years. We then needed to step back and unpack to see where we were because we hadn't done that after Madelyn's death. Sharing Solace (SharingSolace.com) was founded from that love and hope: to help grievers grieve and lovers love their griever through technology-elevated, pass-along-able gifts wrapped in a meaningful community of support and strength - so you can always ‘Remember. You're not alone.' We will talk about her business on a future episode.

In this episode I have the joy of interviewing Essence Reid-Oxley about her motherhood journey. During our time together Essence shares with me about her son Micah and what it was like to learn that he had Sickle Cell Anemia and then was later given a life limiting diagnosis called "Fetal Akinesia”. We talk about what it was like to receive that diagnosis, what options she was given and what words of wisdom she would give to another mom who has been given a life limiting diagnosis for her baby. Essence shares how she created a birth plan and what her hopes were for when her son Micah was born. Then we spend time talking about what it was like to parent her living son throughout her pregnancy and then after losing Micah. We talk about the kinds of questions that a 2-3 year old asks when trying to process the loss of a baby and how those questions change as they grow older. We talk about what it was like for Essence to walk Tobias, her living son, through that season while her heart was also breaking. The books she read to him, the way she talked about what was happening and what had happened as well as the ways they include Micah in the life of their family now.  Essence experienced another devastating loss just earlier this year, not even a year after losing her son Micah and we spend some time talking about what that was like for her, how she is pursuing healing and what her relationship with God looked like amidst all the loss and grief. This conversation is honest and incredibly hopeful – I know it will bless you.   QUESTIONS WE DISCUSS IN NO.172 What surprised you most about loss and the grief journey?  What would you say to a woman who has just received a life-limiting diagnosis?

Nick and Sabrina Kohlberg were told at their 20-week anatomy scan that their daughter Collins had anencephaly. This condition is not compatible with life. They were given a couple weeks to decide whether to terminate the pregnancy or continue with the expectation that she could pass at any time. They were told if she made it to delivery, she could live a few minutes or a few hours. Sabrina said, " I could not make the decision to terminate her life, so we put it in God's hands, and we hoped to get some time with our daughter alive. During the episode they shared about the next 4 months of pregnancy. Times when complete strangers asked if it was a boy or girl? Co-workers that would just sit and cry with Sabrina. The support from the high-risk doctor that Sabrina said was amazing as well as all the people he connected them too. The guidance and support for them through the rest of the pregnancy, delivery and funeral services was so helpful. Nick and Sabrina talked about the amazing 11 hours that Collins lived and the 2 days they were able to spend with her. They shared about creating memories, mementos and ways they are honoring Collins life. Advice and Encouragement from Nick and Sabrina: Nick: First, talk about the child you lost. Don't worry about making others uncomfortable when talking about your child. This is your life, and your child deserves to be talked about. Don't be scared to mention your baby. Second, yes it sucks. Just hold on, it might take a year, it might take 6 months or multiple years. There can be good that comes out of a bad situation. Honor your baby, which is good and keep hope alive. The loss community is not one that we would choose to be part of but it is a community that takes care of each other. Sabrina: Facebook support groups can be amazing, search for a group specific to your situation. I will caution you though that it can be overwhelming, and you may need to step back. I learned that grief could look very different even with spouses. We both lost Collins and the path we went through was very different. For women the trauma is different for you because your body is going through a lot of change.

During our time together Kristyn talks honestly about her experience with IVF and what it was like to lose a twin in the first trimester of pregnancy -- she shares what it was like to grieve that loss, the unique challenges it held and what advice she would give to a woman in that situation. We go on to talk about what it was like to receive a life-limiting diagnosis for her son Asher -- what she wishes she had known, what she learned and what she would have done differently. Kristyn said that immediately after hearing the news she canceled everything, her maternity photos, her baby shower, everything. But then after thinking about it for a few days she decided this baby and this pregnancy was worth celebrating. She said she asked herself: “how do I want this pregnancy to be? I want it to be full of joy.” This part of our conversation was really beautiful and I absolutely love the idea her friend did for her in the way of a Baby Blessing -- you'll have to listen to hear exactly what I'm talking about. We talked about a few specific tactics that were helpful to her in navigating life after loss as well as a major career change she made a few years following her son Asher's death. The last thing we talk about very candidly and tenderly is the reality that Kristyn is unable to have more children and what it's like to navigate losing your youngest child -- if that is your reality too, I am sure that what Kristyn has to say about this will remind you that you are not alone.   FREE RESOURCE FOR LIFE AFTER BABY LOSS Over the past 5 years we have helped thousands of women navigate life after the loss of a baby and we pulled our best and most helpful resources all into one easy to access resource.

Wendy Tamis Robbins' anxiety, obsessive-compulsive, and panic disorders started when she was a young child growing up in a volatile household. Anxiety controlled her life well into adulthood, to the point of agoraphobia. Though she dabbled in treatment from time to time, it took many years and an unsuccessful marriage before she finally took hold of her mental health and, through introspection, meditation, re-parenting and self-administered exposure therapy, escaped from her self-inflicted prison.Not only are we living in an era of particularly high anxiety, but according to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America, anxiety-related disorders are the most common mental illness in the United States, affecting more than 40 million adults aged 18 and older. And anxiety disorders also affect more than 25 percent of teenagers ages 13 to 18.Wendy's story offers hope and inspiration to individuals trapped by anxiety disorders.

This week I invited my friend Lindsey Dennis back to the podcast to talk about her spiritual journey and walk with God amidst anticipatory grief and the grief that followed the loss of her two daughters, Sophie and Dassah -- both from life-limiting diagnoses. Lindsey shares honestly as she answers questions like: Did you ever get angry with God? Did you doubt His goodness? Did you doubt your faith completely? I also asked Lindsey how she wrestled through the idea that God was powerful enough to heal her babies… or was He? Or did He just choose not to? And if He chose not to, is He still good? We also discuss the question: did I do something wrong to deserve this loss? A question that many of us have probably thought about or asked at one point or another in our grief journey. We end our time talking about heaven and what the Bible has to say for us as grieving moms and the hope we have to see our babies again one day.    Whether you have been following God for a long time, if you are new to the christian faith, or if you are searching or angry or confused or questioning everything you thought you believed -- you are in good company, friend.

We cover a lot of topics about life after loss and even life amidst anticipatory grief in this episode as well.    Kelly shares her experience and wisdom about parenting living children amidst a life-limiting diagnosis and after the loss of a baby -- Kelly shares how she explained to them her son's diagnosis, what it was like to walk with them as they grieved the loss of a sibling, why she chose to invite them into the grief in the ways she did. Her wisdom on this is incredibly helpful and very honest.    We also talk extensively about marriage amidst anticipatory grief and after the loss of a baby -- the wisdom she shares about this is insightful and challenging and wonderfully practical and of course full of so much hope.    We also spend some time talking about a topic that we haven't talked about very much on this podcast and something that is still very tender for Kelly and that is what if you do not go on to have a living baby after you have lost a baby -- Kelly talks honestly about what that has looked like for her and she addresses how our culture puts a lot of hope in the idea of a healthy living child after the loss of a baby, a rainbow baby; emphasis put on how a new baby will be our redemption, our healing --  she talks directly to that and to the woman who is experiencing that reality.

Meg Walker joins me to talk about navigating milestones and important dates after the loss of a baby due to a life-limiting diagnosis. She shares with us what those milestone and important or difficult dates are for her. Specifically we spend some time talking about her son's diagnosis day and what that looks like for her every year -- as Meg says “that's the before and after for me -- the day everything changed.” Meg talks about what has surprised her about navigating those milestone days, how she plans for those days and how she cares for herself amidst the more difficult seasons in her calendar year and practically what those days look like for her. How she celebrates her son's birthday, why she doesn't sing happy birthday and how she grieves on the anniversary of his diagnosis.  She also shares helpful wisdom about knowing when to include others and inviting them into these days.  And as you heard at the beginning of this episode, my favorite part of this episode is when Meg reminded all of that no matter what we as grieving moms do, whether we plan elaborate events or cry in our bed or do nothing out of the ordinary at all on those milestone or important days, what we do or don't do doesn't take away from how important and meaningful our babies are.  This conversation is honest and candid and very tender to both of us as you will hear -- we both share what we have learned over the past few years and how our view of milestone days have changed, mistakes we have made, false pressures we have put on ourselves, what still feels hard but also the beautiful moments we have experienced.    FREE GUIDE Last week, in episode 125, Erica McAfee talked about how she writes her son a letter on his birthday as a tangible way to mother him and celebrate him and also to grieve on that day. This was such practically helpful and tangible advice that I wanted you to be able to incorporate it into your milestones and important dates too. I created a writing guide for you that you can download and use on days that feel particularly important -- this is not just for birthdays but for any date where you want to intentionally spend time reflecting on your baby or processing your grief or simply to spend time tangibly mothering your baby.

Carter was diagnosed with a prenatal life-limiting condition and during our time together she talks about what it was like to make the decision to continue carrying a baby that would not live long outside the womb, what she would tell a mom who has recently received a life-limiting diagnosis for her baby and what she wishes she had known about carrying and delivering a baby with a life-limiting diagnosis. Sarah also talks about navigating marriage over the past 10 years of life after loss and the two specific things that her and husband did to navigate the challenges that exist in a marriage after the loss of a baby. Sarah also shares candidly about her faith amidst her journey of loss and she talks about what it was like to be at a different place spiritually than her husband in the years following their son’s death. Sarah is really open in this interview about her faith journey and if you have ever asked questions like “Could God have healed my baby? If so, why didn’t he? Did he plan this? Could He have stopped it? Why didn’t He?” Sarah’s words are going to bring you a lot of comfort and hope. And if you are curious or interested about God, Sarah gives her thoughts on a good place to start on learning more. We cover so much in this episode about loss and grief and marriage and spirituality, I love that Sarah shares from a perspective of having walked this journey for many years now. She brings encouragement and reminders of hope as someone who has been there and knows. I think her words and insights are going to really be a blessing to you.

We talked about what it was like to receive a prenatal life-limiting diagnosis, what it was like to carry a baby you knew would likely not live very long outside the womb, what it was like to prepare for birth and very profoundly what it was like to go home without her baby. Where everything looked as though nothing had changed but everything had changed. She would never be the same. And she gives helpful and practical advice to any mom listening who has been given a prenatal life-limiting diagnosis about how to prepare for birth and what to expect in the days after.   We also talk about those first few weeks and months after her son died, specifically as it relates to her mental and emotional health. We talked about how grief and depression and postpartum depression have very similar symptoms and I encourage listeners then and I’ll encourage you now, if you have any thoughts of harming yourself or are experiencing intense emotions in a way that is inhibiting normal life functions, please seek professional medical help right away. As always you can Call 911 for emergency services or go to the nearest emergency room. Or call the toll-free 24-hour hotline of the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK. No matter where you are in your grief journey Adeyling shares some very practical advice about what has helped her mental and emotional health since experiencing her losses that I think will be really helpful to you. She talks about the role acupuncture played as well as sleep medication. She talks about how valuable writing and journaling was to her as well as finding the right grief support group and how helpful online communities were to her. This would be a great time to remind you that if you are not a part of our joyful mourning community -- we would really love to have you. Life after baby loss is incredibly lonely and we want to come alongside and remind you that you are not alone. We are with you. We understand what you are walking through. Come join us by heading to themorning.com/community.     Adeyling also shares her thoughts about trying to conceive again and we talk about what pregnancy after loss has been like for her. At the time of this recording Adeyling was 18 weeks pregnant and if you are pregnant after loss or thinking about trying to conceive or currently trying, I think you will be able to relate to what she has to say about this in a profound way.  And as we mentioned last week in our episode with Maggie Koch about pregnancy after loss we know how hard the pregnancy after baby loss journey is, so we have created several free resources for you that will be tangibly helpful. To check out those resources, head to our Pregnancy After Loss Resource library at themorning.com/pregnancyafterloss.    Lastly, Adeyling talked about the value of having a strong support system in a pregnancy after loss -- a community you can count on and rely on. We agree with Adeyling and that is why we created a free online community just for the pregnancy after loss conversations. Pregnancy after loss is a unique journey deserving of its own safe space and community where you can talk openly about what you are experiencing -- this community comes alongside our existing main community I mentioned previously to provide support for a season of pregnancy after loss. Come join us by heading to themorning.com/pal, that’s themorning.com/pal. We are so hopeful for what this new community will offer to a woman in a pregnancy after loss journey. One more time, to join us head to themorning.com/pal.    This episode is tender and honest and full of relatable moments and helpful wisdom.

In today’s episode I am talking with one of our Joyful Mourning Community members, Amy Lagomarsino about her motherhood journey. A journey that has been filled with incredible loss and yet even amidst tears Amy speaks with joy and hope. Amy shares her story of infertility and seasons of waiting, she shares about pregnancy loss and miscarriage, she shares about her daughter Ella who received a life-limiting diagnosis and lived for 27 hours and she also shares honestly and tenderly about being pregnant again after such loss. Like I said, her journey has been full of the hardest of things and yet she shares in a way that reminds me that even in the middle of such loss there is hope to be found.  During our time together, Amy not only shares her story but really helpful wisdom she has learned along the way from the different experiences that make up her motherhood journey.  She has words of wisdom for the woman in a season of waiting and wondering if she will ever get pregnant. She has wisdom and encouragement for the woman who has just experienced a miscarriage. She talks about how she prepared for the birth of her daughter Ella and what advice she would give to a woman who has been given a life-limiting diagnosis. She shares what it was like to walk her son Lorenzo through the loss of his baby sister. We talk honestly about guilt and what to do with all the could-haves or should-haves. We talk about how she said her heart could not handle another loss and that meant no more trying to conceive again, you’ll have to tune in to hear what changed her mind. We talked about the tangible ways she mentally prepared to try and conceive again and how she dealt with others’ excitement over a pregnancy after loss when she just wasn’t quite there yet. In fact, if you love a grieving mom, her explanation of why it was hard for her to tell others she was pregnant again might be really helpful and insightful to you. I specifically loved and was so encouraged by how her parents and extended family responded when she told them she was pregnant again. I wish every friend and family of a grieving mom could here at least that portion of the episode because it would just communicate an incredible amount of love in such a tender moment. We even squeeze in how she chose to celebrate Ella’s birthday and honor her at Christmas  and why it felt so important to do so. If you are a grieving mom, what she shares might give you some tangible ideas for your own celebrations, anniversaries and holidays. And if you love a grieving mom I think Amy’s thoughts on this might help you better understand a grieving mom. This episode is full to the brim of real life wisdom about a journey no one asks for but many of us are on. I pray that this honest conversation is a blessing to you as you navigate your own journey.    FREE ONLINE COMMUNITY FOR PREGNANCY OR INFANT LOSS If you are feeling alone in your grief I want to invite you to come join our free online community, The Joyful Mourning Community, where I met Amy and was first introduced to her story.

"We don’t want to be a burden but the reality is, we are carrying a big burden. And we need people. We have to be vulnerable and to say what we need." Kelly Griffin In this episode we are talking all about friendship amidst loss and grief. In this episode I have the privilege of interviewing best friends Kelly & Caroline. Kelly received a prenatal life-limiting diagnosis of Trisomy 18 for her son Reeves and during our time together she and Caroline share honestly and tenderly about their friendship and what role it played in Kelly’s loss and healing journey. Caroline gives incredibly helpful and tangible wisdom about how to love a friend who is walking through a life-limiting diagnosis. If you know and love someone who has received a life-limiting diagnosis or has experienced the loss of a baby Caroline’s wisdom will be so helpful to you. Kelly gives wisdom to the mom who may be feeling lonely, who might not be surrounded by friends who step in to help. This episode is so encouraging as it reminds us that it is the simplest things that matter so much. That loving someone who is hurting does not have to look like grand gestures but rather an imperfect showing up that is consistent and prayerful and thoughtful has the potential to really help and bring healing. This episode is tender and raw and I am forever grateful for these two women and the friendship they represent.

This episode is sure to inspire you and strengthen your faith -- at least it did in me. Listen in as I chat with my new friend Lola who shares the story of her son Elijah. At Lola’s routine anatomy scan, the doctors gave these first time parents the news that their son had a life-threatening heart condition making it very unlikely that he would make it to term or be delivered alive. Against all odds, Elijah would be born and would live for weeks. He would get to meet his mama and daddy and many family members and friends. Lola’s story is not unlike many of you listening. Lola’s story is not that different from my own. And yet, her faith is vastly different. Making me pause and reflect and think about the truth that she shared during our time together -- that we can hope, that we can have joy, even in the mourning, despite all of our circumstances. She talks to me honestly about what her pregnancy with Elijah was like and her lack of fear is nothing short of a miracle and reminds me that God is able to bring supernatural peace that we cannot fully understand even into the darkest of places. Even when we receive the worst of news. Even when our world feels shaken. He can bring peace. Lola shares with me what she wish others knew about life after infant loss, what pregnancy after loss was like for her -- again, her story even in this is remarkable and incredibly encouraging. Lola also shares what she has learned about infant loss within the African culture and what she would like to see happen within that community in regards to baby loss. We talk about our spiritual walks and how there can be purpose in the pain, how her son Elijah’s life changed her forever.  Lola’s faith is contagious and I am incredibly grateful for her story.  If this is your first time joining us and this faith that Lola is talking about feels foreign or shaken I would love to invite you to download a free 7 day devotional that will encourage your heart and remind you of hope -- maybe for the first time.

Listen in as I chat with Kristin Ironside, a mama who endured the heartbreaking journey of knowing the baby she carried would most likely not live more than a few hours. Kristin’s daughter, Annabelle was diagnosed with unilateral renal agenesis and unilateral multi cystic dysplastic kidney -- basically at her 18 week anatomy scan, Kristin learned that her daughter’s kidneys were not functioning properly and without properly functioning kidneys in the womb her little body could not produce amniotic fluid necessary for lung development. Non functioning kidneys and lungs would be lethal to her baby girl. Baby Annabelle could continue growing as a healthy baby in her womb, but they would need to prepare themselves for a stillborn or a life of "minutes to hours." In our time together Kristin shares what it was like to receive a diagnosis like that, one of incomprehensible heartbreak, and what it was like to carry Annabelle for another 15 weeks knowing she would not bring her home after she was born. Kristin shares very helpful and practical advice about how to prepare for a birth in a circumstance such as this but more than even practical advice she shares hope. She says “it is possible to have joy through it all.” and “one day you will get on the other side and you will get to say yeah i did make it and let me tell you how good God was through it all.” She gives such a hope-filled reminder as we are wrapping up when she says “God will give you the grace for all those moments that feel impossible now.”  This episode is both practically helpful and honestly hopeful. I pray that no matter what brought you here today, this episode would serve as a reminder that you are never, ever alone in this journey and that you are more loved than you could ever imagine.

How does it feel to live with life-limiting illness from your first day? How does it influence the way you look at the world and what you believe. And what is the impact of living with an illness that so many people die of, to be close, from an early age, to people you outlive? Nineteen year old Claire Wineland has lived with Cystic Fibrosis since early in her childhood and it has led her to a life of service and connection. She has written a book, delivered a TED talk and started a foundation. And she has profound messages to share about what we all can do to face the fact of death and infuse our lives with purpose and meaning. We'll be talking about the amazing things she's learned, the amazing work she has already done, and the struggles it took for her and her family to find their way.
