Interview with Jennifer Clark: Pregnancy Loss Survivor

This week Mary and Alex sat down with Jennifer. Jennifer is the Director of Graduate Programs at FSU’s College of Business and a self-proclaimed “hippie”. Jennifer and her husband, Paul, journeyed through pregnancy loss together and now have two adult children.

Jennifer shares what she learned about the physical damage of a miscarriage and subsequent D & C years after she endured both. Her perspective about the effects of having a hysterectomy in regard to “womanhood” and all that entails is thought provoking and inspiring.
