Meet Rebecca
Hi, I'm Rebecca Schmid. I'm so glad you are here to share in grief and joy. My life forever changed on June 8, 2022 when my oldest son, Bennett, unexpectedly passed away from invasive group a streptococcal infection. Heart shattering devastation quickly enclosed in on my world. Just after Bennett ran ahead to Heaven, I asked my husband, " How are we going to make it through this?". I share in this blog how I am surviving sorrow. I also share the coping mechanisms and life lessons that I have learned along the way. I am passionate about helping others and I would love the opportunity to walk in the valley with you while encouraging you that you are not alone.
I hope you know....
This blog has been on my heart for quite some time. I've fought back the nudge of writing since my son, Bennett, passed away but after the encouragement of others I decided to push through and just do it. Once I started, the words flowed off my fingertips onto the keyboard. I share my heart with you in hopes of it touching a life and ultimately planting the seeds to further God's kingdom. I want to share what He has done for me and what He can do for you. You may not have walked the same road as me but no one is immune to heartache. This blog just isn't for someone who has lost a child. This blog is for those of you who have experienced loss in general- family member, best friend, job, relationship or miscarriage. You may have experienced trauma, be grieving a scary medical diagnosis, or grieving a life dream that never came to fruition.
I invite you onto my journey with the hope that you or someone you know can benefit from something I've learned. I want to see you grow in your grief. In this blog, I will give you real, raw truth about loss and walking a journey I didn't choose while growing personally and spiritually in the midst of it.
