October 15th is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day
Everyone is invited to light a candle on Oct. 15th at 7pm in ALL time zones, ALL over the world. This is a nationally recognized holiday in the United States; however, it is hoped that anyone, anywhere who has lost a baby or knows anyone who has lost a baby will participate in this event. I will be participating in this event.
I will also be participating in 3rd Annual Rainbow of Roses Rememberance Celebration on Saturday, Oct. 16th. It's a gathering of BLM (baby loss mommas) to remember those lost and/or to support those who have gone through a pregnancy or infant loss. I've got some wonderful ladies who are going to come with me to this event. We're going to remember our angels.
I have to do these things. In fact, next year I plan to ALSO participate in the walk to remember in Atlanta - found out too late in my schedule to participate in this event this year.
Like I said, I have to spend time in October doing these things - I will always spend time from now on in Oct. doing these things. In honor of that little life that I lost that has so changed my life, that has meant so much to me.
Even though I'm TTC again, a new baby will never take the place of the one I lost - our Angel Baby.
I'm TTC again because I really believe God wants me to - I really believe there is one out there He means for me to take home and complete our family... I can't believe otherwise...
Regardless of all that, the point of this post is to remember... my lost baby... and those that have suffered a loss. It's October folks - let's remember!
Please watch...
I will remember.
ReplyDeleteI have to admit, the picture of God and the children had me sobbing, this morning. Plus my last baby's name was Anastasia Shea (same middle name as Casey) What a beautiful video, and such poignant words. I am so sad today remembering my angels :( Praying you get that baby you feel the Lord is leading you to conceive, hun! Biggest HUGS Kris
