Molly Sabourin, author of the Ancient Faith Radio podcast “Close to Home” reflects on the process of naming her daughter, Lucy, who died in the womb.
I heard this podcast today as I drove on the PA turnpike from a visit with friends in Pittsburgh. I nearly had to pull over. Listening through ancientfaith.com, I did not expect the story of Lucy to end the way it did as I was expecting the “happy ending” story of a child’s birth. I was deeply moved and reminded of our need to mourn the loss of children, born and unborn and to continue to reach out to their families. Thank you Molly for sharing your loss and hope with us and thank you Jenny for this valuable resource.
