October is here. A month full of memories and emotions. It's hard to think that in just 2 short weeks we will be celebrating our son's 2nd heavenly birthday. I can picture the day he was born like it was just yesterday... the sights, sounds and smells... are all still so vivid in my mind.
It's not a group you want to be a part of... you know, the infant loss community...but through God's greater plan, we are. And even though we remember Cullen and all of those we know who have lost, everyday, October is especially special. October is pregnancy and infant loss awareness month.
It's a special time to remember the babies who were lost through miscarriage, stillbirth, SIDS or death of a newborn. It's a special time to celebrate those sweet little lives that are now in the arms of Jesus. And it's a special time to support those who have lost their babies and to help break the silence. Pregnancy and infant loss affects individuals and families from all walks of life.
More specifically, October 15th is pregnancy and infant loss awareness day. At 7:00 pm people around the globe will be lighting candles during a "wave of light" in support and rememberance of the precious little lives that were so short, but had a great purpose in this life. If you have personally lost, know someone who has, or even if you do not, if you would light a candle with us and share. Our hope is to have a wave of light across Central PA and the world as a simple gesture to remember our little ones.
Thank you for your support, love and prayers. Thank you for taking the time to remember with us.
James 1:17
God Bless.
