This audiobook is about my personal still-birth experience; an experience that was both harrowing and beautiful in equal measure. An experience that I would, never-in-a million-years, have predicted I could heal from, but I did. I really wanted to believe that life could be so pointlessly cruel, I mean where’s the sense in a full-term baby dying? But, I just couldn’t ignore all the selfless, kind, and all-round beautiful people that came my way. Those people paved my way to recovery.

Sind Sie plötzlich alleine, werden Sie mit Gefühlen konfrontiert, denen Sie noch nie begegnet sind und deren Intensität Sie schier zu überwältigen scheint.

Wichtig ist, den Trauerprozess aktiv zu durchleben und die Zeit zu nutzen, um die Weichen für ein erfülltes Leben danach zu stellen.

The tradition of Victorian mourning jewelry began with Queen Victoria after the death of her husband, Prince Albert. Without photography, mementos of personal remembrance were used to honor the dead so that their loved ones could commemorate their memory and keep their spirits close.

Wytovich's poetry explores the horror that breeds inside of the lockets, the quiet terror that hides in the center of the rings.
