I couldn't create life, but I can still create with Rakefet
12/26/23 • 53 min
I sat down with Rakefet who became a pregnancy loss survivor when at 6 weeks she suffered a miscarriage.
Rakefet used her skills and what she knew to create an incredibly moving short film, Still, calling attention to the world of pregnancy loss.
“I hope that ‘Still’ encourages other mothers who have experienced infant or pregnancy loss to seek out
support, create closure and foster healing by sharing their experiences with other women dealing with
similar grief,” explained Rakefet Abergel, writer and director of “Still”. “These topics shouldn’t be taboo.
As I shared my grief in my circles, women all around me opened up about their experiences. These were
women I knew well, but I was never made aware of the painful losses they had suffered silently. We
need to end the fear and shame of sharing this experience.”
Thank you for listening. Loss/death affects us all. As the saying goes, "death is a part of life". It doesn't make it any easier, however, to grieve.
However, you are the sum of your parts; your emotions and your experience do not define who you are. How you push through shows your character and strength.
It takes a village-- so, come join our community and find others who are living on the other side of grief (and not with grief).
If you or someone you know needs support, please don't hesitate to reach out.
