Pregnancy and Early Infant Loss Awareness Month

October is designated as Pregnancy and Early Infant Loss Awareness Month. Today I was supposed to go help stuff envelopes for an organization called Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep. I thought I was feeling better until I started to make the drive down to where they were meeting and came straight home. I am hoping this bug will be gone by tomorrow. Anyway, NILMDTS is a non-profit organization that provides families who have the heart ache of losing a baby with bereavement photography. I found them last year when were told there was a good chance Squirt would not be here with us. They are holding a gala in November and need all the help they can get I am sure.
I know a lot people like to donate and I hope you will keep with this very worthy cause in mind.
I have been so changed by experiences of going through infertility, miscarriage and everything that happened last year and all that we learned. I hope you all will join me in a prayer for those who have had to suffered a loss. A prayer for the mothers that do not yet know they will suffer a loss. A prayer to the children that went Home and are waiting to be reunited with their family.
To anyone who has suffered a loss at any point, my heart goes out to you and prayers are with you.
