Episode 9 – Loretta Arcari
Today we welcome Loretta to the podcast. Loretta is a loving Mam to Roman, sister to Emmanuel, and aunt to the beautiful Katie. In this episode, Loretta shares the long and deeply sad history of baby loss in her family. She reflects on how generational attitudes toward baby loss have changed, and the profound impact it can have when a baby is not spoken about. Loretta movingly describes the healing her only son, Roman, brought to her entire family, and speaks about how she will always be his loving Mam.
We recognise that these conversations can be difficult. We invite you to listen gently and to mind yourself and your heart. If listening brings up strong emotions, please remember you are not alone, and support is available through Féileacáin in whatever way feels right for you.
