The stories shared on our page are a gift to read. But it is the untold stories from years ago, FINALLY being told, that bring us a special feeling. When we hear from moms and dads that lost babies 20, 30, 40, or more years ago, when we hear them tell us that they feel free to openly and safely share on this page, we are filled with gratitude.
It wasn't so long ago that babies were swept away from outstretched arms of mothers who BEGGED for just one look, just one chance to hold and say goodbye. Imagine being expected to go home and just act like nothing happened. Imagine not being permitted to say a word to anyone about this great loss. Imagine never getting to say goodbye, never getting one memento to hold onto for remembrance.
We hold a special place of honor for these parents and when we get the chance to have them share with all of us, tell us of their babies gone so long ago but still loved like it was yesterday, we feel privileged to listen.
We don't want there to be untold stories. We want to hear them all, share them all, talk openly and lovingly about all the little ones that come and go too soon.
