Austin Candlelighting 2009

October 15, 2009 at 11:36 pm · Filed under Remembrance Day

We had a lovely evening in Butler Park here in Austin for our public candlelighting for Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day.

27 people from 11 families participated. The wind kept blowing our candles out at first, but we found some protection by the reeds along the shore and finally were able to keep them lit.

Last night was beautiful…my husband and I were very happy that we came and plan to be there in the years to come. Thank you so much organizing this…it really does help the grieving process. It’s been 2 months since my son was born sleeping and yesterday was the first day since then I’ve felt some kind of peace. Thank you and God Bless You and Your Family!

Welcome Mothers and Angels!

At this site you will find information and a place to come in your dark and frightened hours. The special features of the site are listed in the next column, as well as topics ranging from causes of miscarriage, to prevention, to when to try again for a new pregnancy.

A Reminder:

The only person who can really tell you what is happening to you is your own doctor, who peers into you with a light and a speculum, who samples your blood or urine, or who presses a sonogram paddle into your belly. If you are in trouble, bleeding, scared, or more depressed than you think you can handle on your own, you must find help. Read and research all you can, but remember that the one-on-one assistance of a real doctor is the only thing that will give you answers that count. If you don't like or trust your doctor, then find one you can.
