A book series for children of all ages experiencing the loss of a sibling- specifically for families going through termination for medical reasons.

When Caroline was 2.5 years old, she learned that her baby sister wasn’t going to live.

Her parents, Joe and Katrina Villegas (author), had to find a way to tell her that the baby was going to die and wouldn’t be coming home.

They made the agonizing choice to induce the pregnancy early (terminate for medical reasons) when they found out that their unborn baby had a fatal condition.

They learned quickly how to talk to their daughter, Caroline, about death and what was happening, but it was uncharted territory for them and was a learning curve. They talked with child life specialists and read books. They learned the correct language to use around children when talking about death.

This children’s book series “Loss of a Sibling Due to Termination For Medical Reasons” is written specifically for families going through a loss due to termination for medical reasons. Katrina felt that the termination community deserved a set of books written just for them, as it is a unique grief journey for adults and children.

This series uses the correct language and walks children through what to expect during specific moments in their journey.
