many people will tell you to "think pink" or "save the tata's" this month.
and as much as i am for breast cancer awareness, i think it needs to slide over and share the spotlight with an equally important cause.
1 in 4
it staggers my mind to know that the chances of you and i to be effected by miscarriage, stillbirth, sids, all forms of babyloss is ONE in FOUR. that is 25%!!!!!!!! and what is more shocking, is the taboo and shame that surrounds it.
the reason this is so near to my heart is not that i am the 1 in 4 as of now, it is because of my dear friend stephanie. her and her precious son, bentley, opened my eyes to the reality of living without your child. and let me tell you, it is a journey that no person should ever go on.
so i'm asking all of you to wear pink and blue this month- to remember all the babies gone far too soon. and to any babyloss mom reading this, please let me share my deepest condolences.... and never apologize for remembering your sweet baby(ies).
