Thriving Long After the Final Frost

Summary

The silence that follows a lost pregnancy isn't just quiet; it’s heavy. It’s a physical weight that presses against your lungs until you’re convinced you’ll never draw a full breath again. After the miscarriage, I didn't just fall into depression; I drowned in it.

The darkest night was when I found myself in the bathroom, the cold edge of a kitchen knife pressed against the pulse in my neck. Grant didn't scream. He didn't call 911. Instead, he simply picked up another blade, held it to his own throat, and offered a twisted, tragic smile.
