Empathy

It means the world to us when you just let us talk, say Austin's name or even cry all over you if we need to. Instead of offering advice or suggestions on what to do instead.

Because. . .

. . .even almost 4 years into this heart-wrenching journey, there are some days, some seasons where the waves of grief threaten to overwhelm us.

It really may mean the difference between you helping us to take a step forward, or pushing us several steps back in our journey.

Being shown empathy is a true and precious gift. ❤
