Beautifully written. ♥️ I walked alongside a young friend on the same journey, many IVF chances that never came to fruition. I see you. I see your heartbreak and grief and anxiety. It is such a lonely place to be. Praying that Gods almighty comfort continues to mend your broken places while turning your face towards Him. 🙏🏻
Kelsey... wow. Thank you for sharing this. I think the one that got me the most was your husband's office. And this was so so beautiful: "...and she will one day look back on this time as a silhouette of grief— a dark shape of sadness held up against the Light of the World." I am encouraged by your faith and perseverance, friend! <3
Kelsey this piece encompasses so much of the grief of dark moments with the hope that the Light will overcome. Tender and beautiful friend. Thank you for sharing

Oh, how beautiful and hard and poignant is this. Thank you for being brave and strong enough to put it into the world.
I have read this twice bc it is so rich and helpful!
This phrase really speaks to me: “the edges of her pain are softening”…
I’m praying for you and Luke.
Keep on expressing yourself bc you are truly gifted!
(PS…Your MIL, Dianne, is one of my favorite people)
I really appreciate your kind words! And she’s one of my favorite people, too 🥰
