Erin,

Last time I saw you was probably in a booth at Ike’s some night many years ago, but I just had to write to you and let you know you are in my prayers — I just had my second miscarriage in the last 12 months, I understand what its like to get the looks of pity, the stupid comments (have you gotten the “oh, well at least you know you can GET pregnant”?)

Just wanted to say that you do so much good for so many people, I truly believe that the Lord will bless you and your husband.

You just have to believe you will be a mom someday, and I am sure you will attack that role with the fierceness and heartfelt determination that you did with this amazing career you have created.

Best always,
Jenn

hi Erin, we don’t know each other but I feel like we should. First, like you, I also run self defense seminars for women. I love doing the work. It is fun, and it gratifies me like nothing else. If anything, it is a constant reminder of what I have to keep doing for myself to make sure that I don’t repeat the mistakes of the past.
Also, i went through three miscarriages and I still feel the emotional pain of each one. I can tell you the story of my first, which was especially traumatizing. And like you said, people just really didn’t know what to say. But those who did know what to say were the ones, (men and women) who had gone through it themselves. and their stories always made me feel better because I felt understood. I’m sorry to hear about your miscarriage. If your desire is to be a mother, you will find a way to make that happen no matter what. you seem like a very determined person, so fear not.
In spirit,
jackie

Even through life’s toughest challenges you continue to learn, grow and become a better person all the while sharing your experience so that you can encourage, inspire and motivate others. You are a true leader and inspiration. My thoughts are with you and Pete.

Erin-
My sympathies on your loss. It is always difficult to lose a child no matter their age. I will keep you and your husband in my prayers.

Please remember that you have a legion of fans who are willing to step up and help you. We are a team. What you have started is greater than one individual.

Blessings and safe travel on you as you heal and grow.

Tracey

VERY HEARTFELT NEWSLETTER. I REALLY DO FEEL YOUR PAIN: I SUFFERED THREE MISCARRIAGES BEFORE KEEPING MY PREGNANCY. (I HAD TO STOP ALL PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES.)

STRESS REALLY IS A KEY FACTOR, SO TAKE CARE. I WISH YOU AND YOUR HUSBAND ALL THE BEST.
