Published Writing of Mine

Many of you know, this month is a hard one for me. It is the first anniversary of Knox's death, and I have been struggling with the anxiety of how I am going to feel about it. I know, a weird thing to be anxious about, but I'm doing okay- and I know I'll be okay now. I can say, up to this point, second from those first two days, of find and losing him- August 18th was definetely the most difficult.

NW Sids Alliance & Infant Survival asked me to write a small bit for their newsletter about this first year. I was happy to do so, even if it makes me cry just to read it (still).

I wanted to share the link.

Go ahead, and click here- it will open a PDF of the August Newsletter.

Thanks so much to everyone who reads my posts about Knox. I know it's a really difficult topic for most people, and a lot of people don't know how to react or what to say. My little story for NW SIDS should help you all to know how SIDS parents feel in regards to their lost children.

:-) Enjoy and Thank You to NWSIDS for allowing me to do this. I think it's really helping me heal and grow as a person!

Guest Author Position!

So, not that it is necessarily a good thing; because I'd rather not be in the position to help others, but since I can't change what has already happened to us, I'm grabbing the bull by the horns and going with it.

I was asked to be a guest author for the NW Infant Survival and SIDS Alliance newsletter this month. This month is the 1 year anniversary of our losing Knox to SIDS. If you haven't read his story, I invite you to check out the pages at top-- SIDS Awareness Through Knox Ray Bennett & That Big Green Tractor.

Once I recieve the newsletter, I will share it with you all.

Enjoy!
