Send us a text Why Did Our 19 Year Old Son, Jadon, Have To Die? This is the title of a tract Dallita (Jadon's mom) was able to write after his death. Dallita takes the time to do an interview with me about several posts she wrote that have spoken to my heart. She is open about the raw grief she is facing and yet arrives at Biblical conclusions to her questions. We discuss how grief can feel like God betrayed you, what if you don't want to be chosen for this task, taking specific days to grieve, concern your loved one will be forgotten, and so much more. #grief, #griefandhope, #griefshare, #griefpodcast, #griefandloss, #griefhealing, #griefawareness, #hopeinchrist, #hopeingod, #hopeinjesus, #lossofason, #lossofalovedone, #lossofachild, #griefjourney, #griefandsupport, #hopeafterloss https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHF96xK32sAvVGvSjlw0lfQ Join us on Facebook and Instagram at Speak Your Grief with Sonya…

Send us a text How a person handles life is largely how they let hard times shape them for good. Before we learn about Valerie Kucera's large, gaping hole in her life from losing her mom, we want to first take a look at what shaped her mom's life. Margaret Watson came to America at twenty years of age to marry her sweetheart. We will hear about her childhood in England and then her new life in the states as a military wife. God would use these things to help mold her into the giving, loving person she was. In Part 2, we will hear about the long health battle she went through. Valerie, her daughter, will tell us about that journey and give us some insight into the challenges that come with a family member that has surgeries, hospital stays, and rehabilitation for an extended time. #grief, #griefjourney, #griefshare, #griefandhope, #lifestory, #healing, #hopeingod, #hopeinchrist, #hopeinjesus, #lossofaparent, #lossofamom https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHF96xK32sAvVGvSjlw0lfQ Join us on Facebook and Instagram at Speak Your Grief with Sonya…
