Veronica Valencia Instagram – Loss 🕊️ This isn’t easy to share, but part of my grieving is sharing and talking about it. A couple of weeks ago I had a miscarriage while away for work. It was both traumatic and terrifying, and I was away from my family and Kris. This was not something I wanted to go through without my loved ones right by my side, however I am forever grateful I had the 24/7 support of my work family (you know who you are 🥹) and forever grateful for the kindness of EVERY single member at the local hospital who cared for me and acted quickly with the situation.
Going through this experience has instantly put A LOT into perspective. I am still emotionally working through it.. but every day I move forward. Ever upward. Knowing all I know now (statistics of failed pregnancies, risks, the fear) I just wish I could have been more emotionally prepared, as well as more supportive of loved ones who have also experienced this overwhelming sense of grief associated with pregnancy loss.
I’m well aware that this will be the first time a lot of our friends and family are hearing about this, but sharing something so personally pivotal is something I feel strongly about. This is my way of moving through it; more importantly, I hope that by sharing my experience I can bring some comfort to others who may have experienced this as well.
You are not alone…
Life doesn’t wait for you to heal. You have to get up and keep pushing forward for yourself. No matter how painful it may be, find the strength to move through it.
Find your support. Fully open your heart so you can heal. ❤️
My heart is with you.
