October is Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Month. While the Speaking Grief initiative explores many types of grief experiences, we’ll be sharing some stories around this particular type of loss throughout the month. Michelle Winship’s granddaughter, Nova, was stillborn in 2015. I sat there and thought, ‘I’m sitting in a rocking chair rocking a baby that didn’t really need to be rocked.’...

Here is one of the news stations coverage of the event! https://spectrumlocalnews.com//road-of-remembrance-at-fore #RoadofRemembrance #pailawareness2020 #WNYPBN

Yesterday was our event in lieu of the Walk to Remember. I know that many in our circles don’t get why we intentionally make ourselves sad. We do it because spending a portion of the day focused specifically on our lost babies is healing. Sadness is not a crime, nor does it need to be avoided at all costs. Sometimes it is best to let yourself BE SAD. Happiness means so much more when you have had the sadness behind it. #pailawareness2020 #wnypbn

The Road of Remembrance was a beautiful tribute to all of our babies gone too soon! Thank you to all who participated and truly made this event a celebration of life! Thank you to our sponsors, supporters and volunteers who helped make this a beautiful event! #PaILAwareness2020 #WNYPBN
