Jenny Corkum

I did not simply “move on”—I learned to move forward while carrying grief.
My husband and I grieved differently, and it affected our marriage.
Childlessness changed where I felt safe, including work and church.
Mother’s Day is not “just one day.”
I am more than what did not happen to me.
My dogs and the love I give them are meaningful.
Friendship and chosen family matter deeply.
Finding joy does not erase my grief.
Creating community helped me find purpose again.
My story is still being written.
