Some losses are so profound they don’t fit inside any framework we have for grief.
@collinfarias story is one of those, and his willingness to share it with the world is an act of extraordinary love.
In May 2024, Collin’s wife Camry was diagnosed with colon cancer that quickly progressed to stage four. Camry was navigating her illness while also navigating a pregnancy—holding two enormous, beautiful, terrifying things at once. At 23 weeks, her water broke. On July 3rd, their son Chance was born prematurely... that same day, Camry died.
Nine days later, Chance followed.
In this episode, Collin walks us through all of it—with honesty, with tenderness, and with a kind of clarity that can only come from someone who has sat in the deepest depths of loss and chosen, over and over, to keep going.
From making funeral decisions to returning to the hospital, from leaning on community to posting on Instagram as an unexpected lifeline... we talk about it all.
AND...
Because this conversation was literally sooo f*cking good, Collin and I want to offer something up to you all...
