Bereavement Support Movement

Parents reaching out to others in time of grief

"An event has happened upon which it is difficult to speak, and impossible to be silent."
-Edmund Burke

I've created this home page in hopes of providing a place of comfort and support for women and families that have sufferd the tragic loss of a baby through ectopic, miscarriage, stillbirth and neonatal death.

It is my hope that this site will provide a resource for parents concerning information about their rights following the loss of their beloved baby.

When I lost my baby in 1997, I later discovered that I had been denied the right to a proper burial of the remians, and to be given information concerning hospital policies under a twenty year old state law.

Part of my ministry has been to advocate for parents who have lost a baby, no matter how early the gestation.

There are many links to resources, news stories, counseling organizations worldwide and information on your rights, regardless of what state your reside in you have civil, moral and religious rights that all hospitals must uphold.

This site contains my story, and the stories of other women who have spoken out publicly through the media to change the level of care for women and families.

I hope that the information on this site will empower many women to know that you have options and can control the direction of your care.

You are listening to: Hello - Good-Bye

Where's the navigator of your destiny?
Where is the dealer of this hand?
Who can explain life, and it's brevity?
'Cause there is nothing here that I can understand.
You and I have barely met, and I don't want to let go of you yet.

Noah, hello, goodbye
I'll see you on the other side.
Noah, sweet child of mine
I'll see you on the other side.

And so I hold your tiny hand in mine
For the hardest thing I've ever had to face.
Heaven calls for you, before it calls for me
When you get there, save me a place
A place where I can share your smile
And I can hold you for more than just awhile.
