“I'm sorry. There is no heartbeat.”
With these words, the lives of expectant parents turn upside down in an instant. Whether a few weeks into a pregnancy or just before birth, the death of a baby is devastating to families. The excitement, hopes and dreams are gone and the parents are often left to struggle with the aftermath alone.
Every person's story is different, yet there are feelings and experiences shared by all who have lost a baby. There is no magic wand that will make your world right again, but I hope, in sharing my story with you, you will feel the presence of a friend sharing your journey with you.
