What your family or community did for you that was helpful or not helpful.
How you and your spouse related (or didn't) to one another in your
infertility or infant death.
How siblings reacted to parents secondary infertility, infant loss, or adoption
What gifts your baby's life gave you
How you dealt with your grief
What things you did to Restore or Arise out of your grief
What you have learned that could help educate others on these topics
