Notes for the Everlost

Part memoir, part handbook for the heartbroken, this powerful, unsparing account of losing a premature baby will speak to all who have been bereaved and are grieving, and offers inspiration on moving forward, gently integrating the loss into life.

When Kate Inglis's twin boys were born prematurely, one survived and the other did not. Inglis's story can help other bereaved parents, and anyone who has experienced wrenching loss, reflect on: - what it means to keep living post-loss

- the unique isolation of bereavement

- the fortitude of like-minded community and small kindnesses

- dealing with family, friends, and bystanders Inglis's unique voice--brash, irreverent, and achingly beautiful--creates a nuanced picture of the landscape of grief, encompassing waves of disbelief and emptiness, moments of unexpected affinity and lightness, and the compassion that grows from our most intense chapters of the human experience.
