The Promise of Allah

 

I tear up as I lie in bed nursing my almost two-year-old little girl.

Her warm hands stroking my tummy while my arms blanket her as she drifts off to sleep.

Sometimes one of the hardest things to deal with as part of your grieving process can be uncomfortable or insensitive questions.

No matter how well meaning, when you are trying to cope with the loss of a child, questions from outsiders can cut deep.
