Los Angeles, June 26 (TIWN) 'Basic Instinct' star Sharon Stone has opened up about losing nine children by miscarriage, and she says women are made to feel that losing a baby is "something to bear alone and secretly.
The 64-year-old actress said women are made to feel that losing a baby is "something to bear alone and secretly with some kind of sense of failure", but the actress says anyone who has suffered a miscarriage requires "compassion and empathy and healing", reports femalefirst.co.uk. In an Instagram comment, she wrote: "We, as females don't have a forum to discuss the profundity of this loss. I lost nine children by miscarriage. It is no small thing, physically nor emotionally yet we are made to feel it is something to bear alone and secretly with some kind of sense of failure.
"Instead of receiving the much needed compassion and empathy and healing which we so need. Female health and wellness left to the care of the male ideology has become lax at best, ignorant in fact, and violently oppressive in effort."
