I became a different person the day I lost you. 1 in 4. That is how many women's pregnancies end in miscarriage. It's so covered in shame and guilt that no one can speak on it. I will forever talk about my precious Angel. This is my story and I'm not really sure where this will go, I don't have a plan but this is what grief looks like. If you relate, I'm so sorry mama.

  • Excerpts of A Chaotic Mind

In agony I deliver the children of faceless, infertile clients. To them I am nothing more than a vessel, bearing the fruit they so wish to carry within themselves. They love me for my ability, and they hate me for it. This is why I am hidden away here in the Factory where they cannot see my rounded stomach, swollen with their life. When the life inside me is gone, birthed into their eagerly-waiting arms, I will be left with nothing. I will be impregnated again, and again, until my body is ruined and I am sent away. I should question this system, this ritualistic rending of my heart, but I do not-in fact, I volunteered for this job. And now, six babies later, I am afraid to leave. It is better to carry life, even temporarily, than to have never carried it at all.
