In honor of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day, I've organized October 15th Raleigh. I wanted a way to honor Robert's memory and our miscarriage in 2004, as well as to reach out to all the other parents who've experienced a loss through miscarriage, still birth, infant loss or ectopic pregnancy.
This candle light memorial will be held on Thursday, October 15, 2009 at 7pm on the South Lawn of the State Capital, Downtown Raleigh. The evening will consist of a simple ceremony of music, an open mic time, a naming ceremony, as well as candles lit in memory of our little one's. This is a free, community-wide event to anyone in the Triangle area.
My prayer for October 15th Raleigh is that parents will find Hope and healing after a loss.

Oh my gosh, I am so very sorry for your loss. I know how badly it hurts. But I am so grateful to you for organizing October 15th in Raleigh! This means so much to me and I will definitely be there! We lost our daughter, Mary Grace in February of this year at 21 weeks. Thank you for sharing your story.
