Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day

Thursday, October 15th, 2009

October 15th is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day.  For all of us who have lost a child, grandchild, niece, nephew or cousin (or have a friend who lost a child) today is a day of remembrance.  Say their names, look at their pictures remember.  No matter how long they were here they were wanted and loved and lived.  At 7pm people around the world will light a candle for those little ones lost.  I will be one of those and I will remember.

3 Groce peanuts and Felix David Groce, Baby and Melody Grace Jenkins, Abigail Brenner, Baby (Covey) Scott, and Baby Scheck.  I am also thinking of all of those whose blogs I’ve come across and remember your children today, too.  (If I’m forgetting some, I’m sorry!  I do have the prego brain right now.)

About Me

Gabriel Elliott Groce

I am a wife, a mother, a woman of God. I have 3 living children and 2 in Heaven. I am writing of the loss of my youngest sons: Felix David who died April 2, 2008 (no known cause) at 24w 3d and was born still on April 4, 2008 and Gabriel Elliott who was born on October 19, 2009, lived for 32 minutes and died peacefully in his daddy's arms. (Gabe was diagnosed with limb-body wall complex - a rare and fatal birth defect - at 19w 6d and we chose to carry him to term.)

I may be upbeat at times, down or silent at others. I hope that by writing about my experiences I can help people understand my grief and maybe help them through theirs.
