Quote of the month
"The death of a baby is like a stone cast into the stillness of
a quiet pool;
the concentric ripples of despair sweep out in all directions,
affecting many, many people."
--De Frain, 1991
Getting The Support You Need
There are various organisations out there which have been set up especially to help you and your family in this most difficult of times. These range from large charities to small internet communities of people who have been through the same thing. Although nobody would ever wish for another human being to suffer this great loss, it can help to know that there are other people out there who know how you feel and know the pain of stillbirth.
Below is a list of some resources which we think you may find helpful. If you know of any others, please go to the contact page and send me an email. I am always looking to add to these resources
