Join Epilepsy New Jersey for the Healing Hearts Collective, a retreat for parents who have lost a child to seizures or epilepsy. Built on the belief that while each grief journey is deeply personal, no one should face that pain alone. We aim to create a supportive community where stories are shared, emotions are honored, and the enduring bonds between parents and their children are celebrated.
Led by Kelly Cervantes, writer, speaker, and advocate, and Urmi Vaidya-Mathur, LCSW, trauma, and PTSD specialist, the day will include workshops, group discussions, and quiet reflection. Each participant will also receive a copy of Kelly’s book, Normal Broken: The Grief Companion for When It’s Time to Heal But You’re Not Sure You Want To.
