Episode description

Type of Loss: Neonatal loss

More about Cecily's story: In this moving episode, Cecily Shelton shares her journey of loss, grief, and healing following the neonatal loss of her daughter, Kayla, in 2003. Diagnosed with preeclampsia during her 7-month check-up, Cecily was hospitalized and induced to save both their lives. Kayla was born and lived for two precious days, leaving Cecily to navigate a deep depression that lasted for years.

Cecily opens up about her decision to stop merely existing and start truly living, which led to the creation of her inspiring book, Living Through the Pain. This powerful memoir not only normalizes grief but also offers readers strategies to embrace healing and find purpose after loss. Through her story, Cecily reveals how she turned her pain into a journey of helping others, providing hope and strength to grieving parents.
