Sarabeth, Forever Held

When I was 15, our family lost our youngest son and brother when he was stillborn due to anencephaly. Though not my own child, I loved him from the time I knew my mother was pregnant, and his passing impacted me deeply.

Zachary, Forever Held

I carried you every second of your LIFE and will LOVE you every second of mine. As mothers, we have a special bond with our babies when we carry them. They are part of us. We share blood, oxygen, and food. We are one. We know them. And then they are gone. But we never stop loving them and thinking of them. How do we hold our babies forever when we can’t physically hold them? I knew I would always love my son, but how would I honor his life?
