October 15 – Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day

A candle, for all of us missing one, two, or more at our tables (that link is to Aunt Becky’s Wall of Remembrance, for families missing babies, a wonderful thing she does for her friends each year). The Band (an amazing support resource) also has a Wall of Remembrance, both lists far too long in my opinion.

For lives too short, for lives not begun.

Today (and every day) Bill and I are missing:
Mar 18, 2006 – missed M/C 8w4d
Sept 10, 2006 – we never saw a heartbeat, so they call it a chemical pregnancy…I hate that term
May 27, 2010 – missed M/C 8w4d

I know many of you are missing your own little ones too; tonight between 7 and 8pm I light that candle for each of them.
