A devastated widow has discovered that she is pregnant the day before her husband's funeral, after a seven year struggle to conceive. Australian Kristy Kirchner shared her journey to motherhood with her husband through her humorous YouTube channel, ConceiveABaby, for twelve months. She is now using the....
forum to find solace in her grief after her husband, Royce Kirchner, 35, was killed in a horrific car accident on October 8.
Mr Kirchner's car flipped and slammed into a tree, just ten minutes away from their Mount Archer home in Central Queensland, killing him instantly.
It was just five days after Ms Kirchner had been implanted during their first cycle of IVF, after saving for three years to afford the expensive procedure.
'I'm pregnant, but this is not how I was supposed to be telling this story,' Ms Kirchner tearfully told her followers in a YouTube video.
Her YouTube videos now capture her raw grief and her conflict.
In a bittersweet moment, she announced her long awaited pregnancy just moments after telling viewers that her husband, who had appeared in many sweet moments during her YouTube series, had been killed.
'For me, YouTube is just like a diary. Some people write in a diary but I talk to a camera,' Ms Pacey explained.
'I just find comfort in people helping me work through these feelings.'
At a time when Ms Kirchner admits she felt she had nothing to live for, her unborn child, who she has named 'Pacey', saved her life.
'Right now this baby… My dream and Royce's dream is my reason for living,' said Ms Kirchner.
During her eulogy for her beloved husband, Ms Kirchner revealed that she had just learnt that they were having a baby.
