The bereaved mom shared a photo of herself ahead of having her final procedure in that journey, laying in a hospital bed with tears in her eyes.

In the caption of the shot, she wrote, “Well, here we are. I didn’t want or expect it to go this way, but it is. I so badly wanted to bury him under a beautiful tree in our yard, to see any glimpse of his tiny body, which is I why I held out so long trying to trust my body. But, it is time to heal and get to the other side of this loss.”

“And to Beau, I carried your body for almost 5 months, your soul for a little less, but I carry you with me in my heart every where and for always💗,” she concluded.
