For those of you who’ve been following my writing and publishing journey, of The Miscarriage Project, I have exciting news!!
Finally Published!
After a three-and-a-half-year long journey, The Miscarriage Project is finally published and to purchase, as of yesterday!!
Behind the Cover
Here is the official Cover Reveal for my special blog readers:
It may seem a bit simplistic, but that is how I intended it to be. I didn’t want to trigger anyone who might read the book, with anything too sentimental or graphic.
Instead, the idea came to me of the three hearts, you see above.
Red & Black Hearts
The red heart signifies the life of the child, but also the love of the parents for the child. The black heart signifies the death of the child, as well as the grief, pain, and loss experienced by the parents.
Golden Heart
However, my favorite heart is the gold heart, which signifies the eternal life with Jesus that child has, as well as the hope parents can have in Jesus Christ, their ultimate Healer and Comforter.
I Have a Story…
Since God gave me this idea for the cover, rich with symbolism, an awesome coincidence happened.
While I was running an errand for a friend, in an office, I spotted something – and what do you suppose I saw?
You got it! Three hearts, colored with the exact three colors you see above! This decoration had an arrow through it, which looked quite exciting in my opinion.
Words of Wisdom
However, after consulting some trusted people in my life, I decided to not include the arrow, because it may give the wrong message.
I though it would be neat, because the Bible talks about children being like arrows in the quiver of a warrior, and I loved the symbolism there .
Even though we lost these children, their lives still matter and matter for God’s eternal kingdom.
Although, to others, it may represent their death and pain, and that was not what I wanted for my readers.
The Cause
My vision for this book is to help as many parents as possible!
Here’s how you can help:
Pray!
1 – First and foremost, you can pray. Pray for the book to reach the people who so desperately need it. Pray it is a comfort for them.
Purchase
2 – Purchase a book for yourself or a friend. This way, you can share this wonderful resource and pass the word, so the book can reach farther than we can imagine! Here is the current link to purchase the book:

God is so amazing! He even worked out for a friend I met through B.S.F. (Bible Study Fellowship) last year, to contact me. It just so happens she works for our local hospital’s OB department, and is in charge of their bereavement services.
Thanks be to God!
Can I get an Amen to that?! I am so beyond blessed by God’s faithfulness and I pray our pain and sorrow can ease someone else’s.
Thank you for your prayers and support through this journey! I am so excited to see God’s impact with this book and how He will transform lives for the glory of His name.
