The Loss Mothers
The Loss Mothers
This is the story of Shelley. Over a 7 month period in 2018 she endured the stillbirth of her son Austin, the 15 week birth of her son Archie and the death of her father in law Brian. Shelley, her husband Eric and their 2 year old daughter Amber were excited to welcome their son and brother but instead they endured a grief that no family should ever have to. Shelley shares the precious time she got to spend with Austin and the special way in which they honoured his life. Shelley beautifully explains that grief is not linear, and while it may soften there is a piece of the heart that can not be fixed. Shelley is an exceptional young woman who has endured such joy and such sorrow during motherhood. Shelley has a huge heart with a lot of love to give. This is the story of Shelley and her much loved sons Austin and Archie. Content warning: This episode discusses stillbirth and miscarriage. This content may be distressing for some listeners.
