Show Notes

Welcome listeners to our podcast. Today, we have the privilege of hosting the incredible Kelly Cervantes. Kelly is not only an award-winning writer but also a passionate advocate for those navigating the complex world of parenting a child with epilepsy. She is the current Board Chair for the nonprofit group CURE Epilepsy and is the host of their bi-weekly podcasts.

Many of you may already be familiar with her inspiring blog, inchstones, where she fearlessly shares the ups and downs, joys, and challenges. And above all, the unconditional love that comes with raising her medically complex daughter, Adelaide.

Kelly is also the author of a recently published book, Normal Broken. It's a grief companion for when it's time to heal. But you're not sure you want to. I'm certain many of our listeners can relate to that. 

I hope you'll join us as we delve into Kelly's insightful perspective, celebrate her accomplishments, and gain invaluable wisdom for her remarkable journey as a writer, advocate, and devoted mother. I hope you're getting ready to be inspired and uplifted by Kelly's spirit.

 

Here's what we talk about:

  • How Kelly and her family deal with her daughter Adelaide's epilepsy.
  • What are the common emotions experienced by parents after the loss of their child, given that they have been their primary caregivers?
  • The act of remembering plays a crucial role in the process of healing after a loss.
  • How does the grieving process for each spouse differ, and how do these differences influence the marriage?
  • And much more!
