When 13-year-old Aubreigh Wyatt died by suicide after enduring relentless bullying, her mother, Heather Wyatt, was left shattered-but not silent. Told through Heather's courageous and unflinching voice, The Aubreigh Wyatt Story is a heartbreaking, raw, and ultimately empowering account of unimaginable loss and one mother's journey to reclaim her daughter's voice, dignity, and legacy.
From the moment Heather discovered Aubreigh's body to the countless hours spent navigating a system that failed her child, this book chronicles the depth of a mother's grief and the fire of her resolve. Determined to bring awareness and accountability, Heather began sharing Aubreigh's story publicly, only to be met with gag orders and slander lawsuits intended to silence her. But silence did not win. When Heather found herself voiceless and facing an uphill battle, millions of women and men across the world rallied behind her online, sharing her story, vowing to be her and Aubreigh's voice, and raising legal funds to keep the fight alive. Suddenly, Aubreigh's name was everywhere. Her story echoing in classrooms, courtrooms, and conversations around the world.
She founded the Aubreigh Wyatt Foundation and launched legal battles against school districts and social media platforms in search of accountability and reform.
This is more than a memoir of loss-it's a call to action, a testament to the strength of a mother's love, and a voice for every child silenced too soon.
Finished it in one day. Real and raw truth. Goes into the reality of life after death and talks about the parts that most people wouldn’t think of as well. Grief lingers in ways you never thought were possible
If you are on TikTok, most likely you have ran across Aubreigh’s heartbreaking story and Heather’s battle with grief. This definitely details Heather’s grief and provides more details into Aubreigh’s untimely ending. I hope in writing this, Heather was able to find more peace and healing from the loss of her beautiful daughter. Too beautiful for Earth! #LLAW
#LLA💞 The way this book moved me to tears Heather, I hope you know you’ll never be alone and we won’t let anyone forget Aubreigh. Your strength is incredible.
I wish that I could put words into my emotions right now, but I cannot. This is one of the most beautiful and gut wrenching books I have ever read. Aubreigh did not deserve anything that happened to her, and I hate that she was silenced by the same system that was supposed to protect her. The Wyatt family didn’t deserve to go through the unimaginable loss, nor any of the things that followed after. I just have no words, I am so sorry.
I am a local to the area and witnessed the backlash that Heather endured for advocating for Aubreigh. As a therapist, this book takes a vulnerable and honest look at the depths of grief and the importance of mental health and suicide awareness. The things Heather has endured emphasize the fact that the system is flawed and that education, awareness, and changes need to be made within our schools and communities to protect kids and advocate for mental health services. Thank you for sharing your story!
Read it in one day. Not even a day. A couple of hours but that’s because Aubreigh’s story is so powerful and I now know how her mom was feeling when she was going through the grief.. I felt every emotion while reading this book
