Oct. 15 is Pregnancy Loss Remembrance Day: Light a Candle
By Deanna | October 14, 2008
Light a candle for babies lost to miscarriage and stillbirth at 7 p.m. in your local time to create a continuous wave of light around the world to remember our lost little ones.
Several years ago, one determined mama and some friends went on a mission to get this day officially recognized in all 50 states.
She succeeded.
Both here and on my web site at www.pregnancyloss.info, we make sure that this day does not pass unnoticed.
IF YOU ARE IN AUSTIN, TEXAS, we are meeting at the lighted fountains at the new park by Palmer Events Center at 6:45 to light our candles together. Feel free to email me at deanna@austin.rr.com to coordinate.
I light candles for
Casey Shay
December 1997 to April 1998 gestation
Daniel
June – July 2001 gestation
Emma Hope
August - October 2001 gestation
Here are the girls at our candle lighting in 2007, where we floated our little lights on Town Lake.
