Day 15

October is Miscarriage, Stillbirth, and Infant Loss Awareness Month. I am joining many other women who have suffered loss in a 31-day blog challenge. If you're a mom to an angel baby and would like to join, please do:

Day 15: Today is Pregnancy and Infancy Loss Awareness Day. What are you doing today?

How odd.  A year ago, I never knew this day existed.  It is the saddest day on earth, where so many women mourn and remember their lost babies.  Today I will be lighting a candle at 7:00 pm in rememberance of my Delilah.  I will be joining in the wave of lights this day. 

Sadly, no one else will have any idea what this day is or what it means to so many of us.  Why is infant loss so taboo?

I lit a candle for Delilah outside on her bench in her garden.  I also lit the candle that I light for her every night.
