in Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

A friend of mine posted this on facebook today.. loved the quote...

 

?A wife who loses a husband is called a widow. A husband who loses a wife is called a widower. A child who loses his parents is called an orphan. There is no word for a parent who loses a child. That?s how awful the loss is.? - Ronald Reagan

October is National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. I am the face of an early miscarriage. This is not a taboo subject. Please don't close your minds and hearts to those who have suffered child loss.

 

Hope everyone's day is a little easier than yesterday.

    Thank you for sharing. I would like to post something on FB eventually, mostly to break the silence and raise awareness. I'm not sure what that will be yet, but I do like this.

    Started TTC July 2012. Missed m/c & d&c 9/12 11w. Natural m/c 1/13 6w. Chemical pgs 3/13 & 8/13 around 4w. Currently TTA while saving for adoption.

    Wonderful quote! I really want to post this to my facebook but not a lot of people know about my miscarriage... I definitely dont want a pity party but this is such a beautiful message. Should I suck it up and post it anyway?

    This is beautiful, I have stolen it and posted.  I came out a few weeks ago about our losses and think this is even more fitting.  Thanks for sharing.
