Seven Months of Forever: A Memoir of Love, Loss, and Faith
by Bodie Sunflower
A heartbreaking yet hope-filled memoir about infant loss, parental grief, and the enduring power of love and faith.
When Bodie and his wife prayed for a child, they believed their second baby was an answered prayer. For seven beautiful months, they dreamed, planned, and waited. But an unexpected tragedy-the stillbirth of their son Gabriel-shattered everything.
Seven Months of Forever is a deeply personal, faith-centered memoir that chronicles the emotional journey of losing a child during pregnancy. Told with raw honesty and poetic grace, this book walks through every stage of grief: the earthquake of loss, the still silence of the hospital room, the aching emptiness of coming home without your baby-and the slow, sacred work of healing.
Through each chapter, Bodie Sunflower reflects on marriage, memory, spiritual resilience, and what it means to carry a child not in arms, but in heart. Written for grieving parents, supportive loved ones, and anyone who has ever experienced invisible sorrow, this memoir offers compassion, connection, and hope.
Whether you're walking through loss or loving someone who is, this story will remind you:
Some children live forever in silence.
But love-true, enduring love-never leaves.
