"There are so many forms of grief. It goes from loss of a loved one, to a divorce and even the loss of a career. It's okay to talk about it." ~ Christy Wopat

Christy Wopat couldn't find the book she needed after giving birth prematurely to twins, and losing them. So she wrote it. The award-winning memoir; "Almost a Mother" was her first book. The topic of grief hits all of us, and this author is able to be open with bits of humor and especially the moments of awkwardness as we have all felt when trying to comfort someone.

Wopat is a teacher, speaker, performer, mom and wife who went on to write another book to help siblings understand why the new baby didn't come home from the hospital. "Always Ours" is a beautiful book with illustrations to connect the most difficult conversation.

We celebrate Christy as she launches her third book June 9, 2022 - "After All; pregnancy after your baby dies". This writing shares a walk-through of the author's experience as a bereaved mother and wife, and why writing about it has been the healing path. (Ten16, publisher)
