How Do You Heal After Child Loss?
At 35:18 · chapter starts 32:07
Jay asks what healing approaches actually helped. Emilie walks through the timeline: within 2 weeks of losing Trigg, her family arranged a visit to Dr. Joanne Cacciatori's care farm, where animal therapy and licensed professionals don't try to heal you — they give you tools to coexist with permanent pain. She praises the specialist grief therapists her family found, and underlines how essential weekly couples counseling has been. She is also honest about the limits of peer support: unless someone has been through almost exactly the same thing at the same level of public exposure, it's hard to feel truly understood. She hasn't yet joined a support group, but expects she will when she's ready.
