Profiles of Endurance: Mary Jane Persico

The loss of a child is something no parent should ever have to endure, yet so many do. This conversation about loss is the first in a series of episodes profiling the people who have been through some very challenging life experiences that have given them hard earned wisdom. They have opened themselves up in a vulnerable way in hopes of inspiring or comforting others enduring similar situations.

 

This conversation with Mary Jane Persico is a humble and honest reflection of a mother of 5 who has experienced the devastating loss of not one, but two children. She not only shares her story, but also imparts the wisdom that comes from living through seemingly unbearable situations, and does so in a kind, unassuming and loving way.
