Fertility Grief Part 1
Six times I hoped. Six times I grieved.
So when the Jewish calendar asks us to mourn destruction - I don’t need a fast day to remember what’s missing.
Fertility grief during the Three Weeks isn’t just symbolic.
It’s personal.
It’s raw.
Your fertility journey
And now… Israel.
There’s no guidebook for grieving your own pain while your people are grieving on a whole other level.
If your heart feels split between your personal loss and collective mourning all of us are doing, you’re human.
You get to hold both.
Grief and the Unknown
Waiting.
Waiting.
More waiting.
For what feels like forever.
