Broken Wings Broken Dreams Book Cover
ATLANTA, GA, UNITED STATES, December 10, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — Silverlight Press author Nicole B. Gebhardt will release two powerful books on December 10 designed to guide individuals through the difficult journey of healing after the loss of a baby or child.
The books, Broken Wings Broken Dreams: Taking Flight After Infant Loss and Miscarriage and its companion, The Healing Cocoon: Emergence After Infant and Pregnancy Loss, provide practical tools and emotional support for those grappling with grief. Both books have already reached #1 on Amazon in their respective categories.
Breaking the Silence Around Pregnancy and Infant Loss
Approximately 25% of women experience the unimaginable pain of losing a baby due to miscarriage, infant loss, child loss, or stillbirth. Over 2 million pregnancies annually worldwide end in stillbirth. SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) claims thirty-eight deaths per 100,000 live births in the United States. These books aim to be a source of comfort for mothers, while also offering partners, friends, and family members a meaningful way to support their loved ones through this grief.
“As a partner, spouse, friend, or family member, when you see your loved one suffering, you can give them The Healing Cocoon and Broken Wings Broken Dreams,” Gebhardt said. “These books are a step-by-step guide to help them find peace, heal, and learn to live fully again after the loss of a baby.”
Both books offer tools to help manage the emotional impact of anxiety, depression, PTSD, and insomnia that often accompany the grieving process.
A Mother’s Mission to Honor Her Children
Nicole B. Gebhardt wrote Broken Wings Broken Dreams as a tribute to her son Samuel, who died at 9 weeks old, and in memory of the two babies she miscarried. The book chronicles her journey to return to living again after these devastating losses, while The Healing Cocoon offers additional guidance for those supporting someone who is grieving.
“It is my life mission and purpose to break the silence and bring awareness to pregnancy and infant loss,” Gebhardt explained. “I know my three babies in Heaven are so proud of their momma.”
Broken Wings Broken Dreams and The Healing Cocoon are now available on Amazon:
– Broken Wings Broken Dreams
– The Healing Cocoon
Both books were available for pre-order on October 15, Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day—an annual day of reflection for those who have experienced miscarriage, stillbirth, SIDS, ectopic pregnancy, or the loss of a newborn. The observance honors the millions of parents around the world who have endured the heartache of losing a child.
