My name is Karen Peloquin and I've turned to writing in order to help me process my compound grief. I write about the loss of my loving fiance', Chris Raynor, in a car accident on our wedding day on September 12, 2009. I write about the loss of my phenomenal brother, David Taylor, to suicide on December 28, 2016. I write about the love, joy, and happiness my husband, Tom, and my daughters, Annie and Blythe, bring to my life. I feel that I can breathe deeper and love life more when I get the chance to share my journey through words, which then leads me to incredible people who are facing their own battles that I want and care to know more about. My cup runneth over, my heart feels peace, and I'm able to love my people more when I'm able to show compassion and empathy to others and when others show compassion and empathy to me and my family.
