From Ashes to Bloom: Sun After the Storm
Manage episode 493284454 series 3667059
In this episode, I unravel the storm of 2017, starting with my son’s birth by C-section, a fragile three pounds, fighting in the NICU until he passed at home in May. By July, pregnant again, I buried my shame and rage, questioning God, terrified of losing another. Bed rest and weekly shots marked my anxious days, but an ex-husband’s insistence led to a reckless Thanksgiving night, forcing an emergency C-section less than ten months later, chaotic and risky. She arrived to “Here Comes the Sun,” tiny and beautiful, rushed to the NICU. Through tears, I reflect on losing my son, feeling like a failure despite my body’s fight. Too scared to hold her, I pumped milk, bracing for her end, but she defied odds. Teaching her sign language, I found my unscarred self in her smile, her love mending my pain. She’s my sun, proving light follows darkness, a mirror of my healed spirit
A reflective moment with Danielle, encouraging listeners to sit still, have a mirror moment, and release what they’ve carried too long. Emphasizing the power of speaking out, this closing note affirms that everything’s always working out, and we’re all infinite.
