13. Healing from Infant Loss, Art, and the Adalyn Rose Foundation with Karim Aboud
Show Notes

This episode is mostly raw, minimally edited, story-telling from one mom to another. I left in the sniffles, the pauses, the breaks we had to take between questions. I want you to feel like you're right here with us because that's how this podcast is meant to be listened to. 

In this episode, artist and mom, Karim Aboud shares her story in healing from the loss of her 15-month old daughter, her journey as an artist and how she healed through art. She also highlights how she partners with the Adalyn Rose Foundation, an organization out of Pennsylvania that helps parents navigate child loss.  

Topics discussed:

  • How did Karim and her husband support each other through loss and grieving 
  • What kind of support do parents need after losing a child?
  • What should people know about child loss?
  • What to say and what not to say to someone who is grieving the loss of a child
  • What it was like having a rainbow baby
