This is an amazing essay. Beautifully written, heartbreaking, yet life-affirming.

Yes, I know many stories of women losing babies pre-term and newborns and sharing these stories can help women to know that they aren't alone.

I have also spent time in the Kathmandu Valley and remember hearing the news of that earthquake very vividly. It affected me deeply to see the devastation in a place I had spent time and loved.

Thank you for this wonderful piece, Delilah.
