What do you grieve when the person who dies is not your child, but felt like your own?
This is the story of a sacred friendship, two boys raised like twins, and an eight-year battle with cancer that tested everything. We explore the concept of "compound grief", when losses pile up in the same year and the unique pain of "secondary loss," where you are mourning not just a person, but a shared future and a part of your own family's identity.
We will find our footing in a scripture that calls us to weep with those who weep, and we will navigate the difficult solidarity of how to show up for someone else when your own heart is breaking.
