What Happened To Chelsea, Dealing with Grief, Loss of a Child – facebook.com I am documenting the grief and experiences we are going through as we lost our daughter tragically in a drowning accident when she was 13 months old. I am finding that as I come across memories and feeling in these early weeks after the loss I find it healing to document what is happening to me. This video goes over what actually happened to Chelsea. Could the choices we made changed the outcome? I don’t think we will ever have the answer to that question. Having faith or believing that every soul in the universe is put here for a reason and is a given plan from the very beginning is what I have to rely upon as a coping mechanism right now. I don’t know the answer as to “why” this happened yet, but I do know Chelsea was put here for some greater purpose and if her time here was only meant to be for just a little over a year, I have to do what I can to cherish the time I had with her, and draw from the love and smiles she gave me so I can grow from this experience. Maybe someday we can help others deal with their grief, in whatever respect that may be. youtu.be
