“I don’t feel alone anymore and what I am going through is accepted and respected.
It is helping me to learn more about why I feel the way I feel and making it clearer that grief is not linear. This group has helped me to realize it’s okay to acknowledge my baby girl died and it’s not my fault. It’s not my fault. It’s not my fault. And that I will be okay.”
- AP Mom -
“The support given has surpassed anything that I have ever been a part of.
The scope of info shared and growth I experienced is so valuable to my life and moving forward. Understanding that grief is messy, scary, but absolutely a part of my life.”
- AP Mom -
“I’m really grateful for healing circles, our whole family can be here.
I’m really grateful Adam’s Purpose exists. Because without this space, I am not sure if we would have the space to grieve gracefully.”
