One Breath at a Time: Navigating the Early Stages of Child Loss

Healing from child loss is a lifelong journey.

When the unthinkable happened and Shannon and Dean Hodgetts lost their 2-year-old boy Rhys to a febrile convulsion, their world was shattered in an instant.

Denial, guilt, sorrow, anger, despair – they experienced it all. How could any parent ever prepare to navigate the complexities of child loss? Little did they know, they were in for a lifelong journey of struggle, growth, and triumph, eventually learning that grief and joy can coexist.

One Breath at a Time doesn’t focus on the spiritual elements of child loss. Instead, it provides practical advice based on acquired knowledge and lived experience. By sharing their story, Shannon aims to help others understand and navigate the complexities of grief, adjust to the ‘new normal’, and rediscover purpose in life. From navigating the early stages of child loss to using grief as a source of strength, she guides you through every step of the journey, offering hope where it can feel like there is none.

Grief isn’t something to be overcome. It’s a lifelong companion, a continual journey, a testament to the depth of your love and loss.
