Trauma Lessons
So back in May, my wife and I went through a miscarriage. Initially, we went through a rough patch coping through the loss. We had made a bunch of plans to rearrange our living space to better suit the baby when they arrived. As we started, we had realized the baby was lost. We decided to go through with what we had planned for our living spaces and it turned out to be one of the best moves for our family. My wife and I had gave up so much to make sure our kids were great that we forgot to take care of ourselves. The current move was to accommodate our new baby but because of the miscarriage, the new living space actually accommodates my wife and I more to a point where our whole situation improved exponentially.
When kids hit the scene you almost go into a sort of parent guilt if you try to make yourself in a better situation because you feel the kids need to have it before you and in some cases that is true just not all the time. We needed a traumatic experience to get us in a position to avoid a possible more traumatic situation.
This is that reminder of having gratitude on the good days just as much as the rough ones. That brief moment of life was needed to get us back in a better track and in its short lifespan, that little one accomplished so much and then got out quick.
I don't know if this helps anyone else. If nothing else, it has helped me close that chapter in a more peaceful manner.
