By Katie Patrick
The Monday after we left the hospital without our daughter, my husband Ryan and I went to evening Mass at the Cathedral of the Risen Christ in Lincoln. When Mass ended, Father Wylie came straight to our pew. He sat quietly beside us and began to pray.
Imogen’s unexpected death never caused me to question my faith, but it was one of the darkest moments of my life. Father Wylie’s presence that evening—his prayers, his quiet hope, his reminder of our enduring love for Imogen—shaped how I learned to carry both grief and motherhood in the days that followed. “She made you parents, and you will be her parents forever,” he said. It was in those moments that I understood something deeper about spiritual fatherhood.
