Jill Relives Pain & Tragedy With Sister

Jill recently appeared on her sister Jinger’s podcast, in which she relives her heartbreaking loss. In one of her statements, Jill revealed that experiencing a loss puts a person in a very different perspective. She added that navigating the loss can be challenging, even with Derick by her side. Jill clarified that even though she was carrying the most weight of the loss, she believes that Derick and all other men are suffering as much. She was also thankful when Derick stepped up when she got sick during her pregnancy.

Jill then opened up about a painful experience. She revealed that she suffered a uterine rupture, describing it as “insane.” Jill thought that she wouldn’t have children after that. But she and Derick continued seeking help from pre-conception counseling.

Jill later shared that she would write down Bible verses whenever she’s feeling down and read them over and over. Many Counting On fans relate and thank Jill for her wonderful words.
