Mother’s Day can be one of the most difficult days of the year for a mom after child loss. In this episode, Laura will be talking about both Mother’s Day, and a special day the week before, which is International Bereaved Mother’s Day, which is the first Sunday in May.

Laura is  very real and honest about her thoughts and feelings about all of this, in a way that isn’t normally like her.  But Mother’s Day is one of the hardest days we have to face each year, and there is no reason to not admit it or try to sugar coat it.

She closes by praying over each mom who is listening. We need extra strength, and God is the only one who can give that to us.

Note: The main content of this episode is pulled from the archives of episode 106.

Grieving Parents Sharing Hope (GPS Hope) is here to walk with parents through the darkness of child-loss, guiding them to a place of hope, light and purpose.

It is a safe place for anyone who has lost a child from this earth. There is no shame or judgment in where you are in this journey, including if you are struggling in your relationship with God or your faith has been completely shattered.
