The death of a child can break a family. Grief, when untended, can grow wild and overtake the living. The Taylors understood that in the wake of Drew’s death, and found local support groups for parents, people who understood. Finding a support system for their daughter, Lauren, who was 6 years old at the time of the accident, meant a two-hour drive from Shippensburg, Pa. where they live. Marcie said the miles were worth it.
“We realized this is what we need to do,” Marcie, said on a recent Wednesday morning at the Coffee, Crafting & Conversation discussion at Drew’s Hope. Here, after everyone grabs a coffee or tea at Drew’s Hope, Marcie lays out simple rules. No one has to speak and no one’s allowed no judge. A woman named Janice told the group she lost her wife, in October, after bouts with cancer, COVID-19, and heart failure. She said the“It’s hard for me to even be here,” she said, “to say out loud that I loved her, that we were best friends and we did everything together and I miss her.”
Many of the groups at Drew’s Hope, particularly those focused on crafting, draw mostly women but Randy Taylor stopped by to say a few words too. He said talking to other fathers in particular has helped him.
