October 15th - Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day
Today is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day
"Through this remembrance day, we hope to create a greater awareness in the community about the immeasurable impact that pregnancy and early infancy loss has on so many women, their partners and families within our community. We hope that through the recognition of their loss and the subsequent pain endured, this remembrance day can play a small part in enabling families to find a way forward in their grieving, and in time heal the deep wound of loss. Most importantly, this remembrance day acknowledges that these babies were lovingly anticipated and remain forever in their parents hearts." [Source].
