When Your Only Child Dies
"There is a unique pain when your only child dies. I can’t talk with other mothers about mothering, although I am a mother. No one wants advice from a mother who is separated from her child. My motherhood is deniable. Sometimes, I feel like I’m living a lie when I say I’m a mother, even though I know in my heart I still am."
Society's Reaction When a Baby Dies
Just imagine if society reacted to every death the way they react to the death of a baby. Your father passes away. Imagine if when you speak of him you’re told, “Well at least you have your mother”. Your best friend passes away. Imagine if you reach out for comfort only to be told, “That’s awful, but at least you can always make more friends”.
