From the Heart by Chivonne Monaghan
In these writings, I explore the realities of grief, emotional capacity, and the practices that help us stay grounded through life’s hardest moments. My goal is to offer language, insight, and practical support for anyone seeking understanding and resilience.
IRREPLACEABLE YOU
I’m currently wiping away the last tears from my red, puffy eyes. My emotions have been striped bare and I’m feeling deeply reflective. There’s nothing like a good Rom-Com to pull on your heart strings.
“Irreplaceable You” is about a woman who thinks that she’s pregnant, only to learn that she has an incurable tumor instead. No spoiler-alert necessary, you can guess how it ends.
Beyond being a highly emotional empath to begin with, I felt especially impacted by this film because the dying woman is my age. This is a new experience for me.
