A Small Victory

I just finished writing a short biographical essay for the NPO, A Small Victory. They support grieving  parents after the loss of their babies. This is an amazing organization that could use your support. Check them out at www.asmallvictory.org 

From their website:


Every year, roughly 576,000 babies die between 14 weeks gestation and one month of life. There are more deaths due to miscarriage, stillbirth and neonatal loss than there are to cancer (565,000/year) or heart attacks (460,000/year). And that is not even including the one in four who miscarry in the first trimester of pregnancy. There are literally thousands of families out there who need support so that they can have a healthy approach to grief, and they need hope to know that they can live on remembering their lost children.
