About

Thank you so much for visiting my website! My name is Nancy Babst and I am a mother of 5 children, a wife and a grief advocate. 

On November 10th, 2014 my son Garrett tragically died by suicide. Less than four months later, my son James (JT) tragically died in a snowmobile accident while on a trip to spread Garrett's ashes with his father and two brothers in McCall, Idaho. 

All I ever wanted to be was a mom. This is not the reality that I would have chosen for myself - in fact, I am living every parent's worse nightmare. 

Out of ashes, I am making the choice to share my grief journey with a mission to break the stigma surrounding suicide, and to become an advocate for locking arms together with others who have loved and lost.
