Two Weeks After Our Baby Died, My 8-Year-Old Whispered, “Mom, She Isn’t Gone—I Saw What Daddy Did at the Hospital”
Her birth did not heal Melanie.
I hate when people say that.
“She gave you the daughter experience you lost.”
No.
Melanie was not an experience.
She was a child.
Lucy did not fill her position.
There was no position.
