Hi,
I created a new miscarriage support group in New York City
because I felt very alienated after my miscarriage. My family and
friends did not really seem to understand what I was going through.
Similarly, the bereavement groups I found in NYC were exclusively
targeted at people who had stillbirths or multiple miscarriages.
Somehow, they always seemed to have exclusionary clauses. This group
will not discriminate against anyone, no matter at what stage you lost
your little one. I hope it will fill a void, and provide support for
people in the area.
If you enter the search terms "NYC"
"Miscarriage" and "group" in your browser you should be able to find
information about the group online (I am not sure this site allows us to
post links). You can also email me at jgc1921@gmail.com for more information. I hope you will consider becoming a member if you live in
the area and join us for the first meeting, which will be held on
January 23, at 5pm.
It is a group, that will meet bimonthly in a
cosy coffee shop. It is opened to everyone, who suffered a miscarriage
or pregnancy loss at any stage. I hope it will give us an opportunity to
grieve together and share our life stories in a friendly environment.
Jill C.
