This afternoon I was catching up on another episode of Awake (the fourth episode in the series). In this story line Detective Michael Britten interacts in both of his realities with a woman named Kate who babysat years ago for his now teenage son Rex (who is alive in one reality and dead in the other). In both scenarios Kate lost her sister in a surfing accident, but how she copes and deals with her sister's death and what that means for her life is very different in the two realities.  Read more >

About Me: 

I love to write and have been blogging at Bereaved and Blessed (formerly Four of a Kind) since April 2007.

I tweet @BereavedBlessed.

I am a Domestic engineer with 3 children (2 here and 1 in Heaven) trying to live mindfully and find joy in the journey after dealing with secondary infertility and pregnancy loss for over 5 years. I have been married to my college sweetheart since 2000 and we live in Chicago, Illinois with our eight year old son and two year old daughter.

I see myself as a “wounded healer” and I am passionate about helping others who have also struggled with infertility and loss work through their grief and make some good come from the tragedies that they have experienced. 

I am also an American Council on Exercise (A.C.E.) certified Group Fitness Instructor and teach classes part time at a church in our neighborhood. I love to exercise, run and practice yoga, all of which have been very therapeutic for me over the years on my journey through infertility and loss.
