"The
Lord is close to the brokenhearted, saves those whose spirit is
crushed." (Ps 34:19)
You
might feel, in the days and weeks after a miscarriage, like the Lord
is anything but close.
Laura
and Franco Fanucci understand. After struggling with infertility,
they miscarried their third child in the first trimester. Later,
their twin daughters were born prematurely and lived only a few days.
Laura and Franco are here to tell you that, while your miscarriage is
a deeply personal loss, you are not alone.
Grieving
Together is
written by a couple specifically for couples, understanding that both
spouses have experienced a loss and grieve differently. Drawing from
Catholic tradition and teaching, Laura and Franco gently guide you
through:
-
The
physical and emotional experiences of miscarriage - including help
in making the hardest decisions
-
How
couples respond to grief - and how to support each other
-
Turning
to family, friends, and the Church - finding help and support from
loved ones and your Church community
-
The
future after miscarriage - where to go from here as a couple
Grieving
Together is
the book the Fanuccis had wished for after their miscarriage.
Practical resources include Scripture, prayers, and official Catholic
rites. It also speaks to the unique concerns of fathers, and includes
many real-life stories from couples in many different circumstances.
"We
are fellow travelers on the road: parents who have suffered
significant losses yet have grown in our marriage because of the
gifts of our children lives." - Laura and Franco Fanucci
