I was listening to your show today and a woman called regarding the pain she felt for the loss of her child. We too lost a child and I know the pain all too well.
After our loss, I would write down memories and thoughts about our daughter. Some of the thoughts turned into a poem. Then the poem turned to a song. I turned my words and rough melody into a beautiful memory of my child. As you know, we all must deal with these things differently. This was just one part of the healing process, but an important part for me.
Twelve years later, one of my hobbies is song writing. Each song reminds me of her. I am an accountant by trade with no musical training. This is my most recent songs and I thought you might enjoy it as it is about therapy well, Beach Butt Therapy.
I guess I would want people to know they can survive. They can thrive and even grow from the loss, if they don't allow the pain to consume their lives forever. I listen to your show almost every day and truly enjoy the advice and entertainment your show provides.
