Day 9 - A photo taken after your loss

Day 9 - A photo taken after your loss.

This photo was taken 2 days after I found out that I miscarried Peyton. I had signed up for our local craft show months before hand and decided that weekend I was still going to do it because what was the point of sitting around and crying? So I did the craft show. I hosted a chalk drawing area. You can see in the background the kids next to may tent. That was the chalk area. I have another photo I took when there were lots of family and kids drawing in the area.

It's amazing that I survived it. I didn't cry at all that day, I don't remember if I did at night. I was numb. Still in shock that it had even happened. Astounded that the horror had actually repeated itself...that this was my life.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So tomorrow is the walk to remember. We collected over $400 in donations from friends and family! I am so honored to be able to give the Western New York Perinatal Bereavement Network (WNYPBN) the donations tomorrow. I am glad they will be able to help so many families going through this grief. Tomorrow will be a sad day for sure but that is okay. 

I received my Faces of Loss shirt in time for the walk :) :) :) I was so happy because I NEVER thought I would get it - I JUST ordered it on Monday so WOW that's pretty impressive!! :) I have posted pics of all the stuff I will wear tomorrow - I will also get the sweatshirt I bought with the Walk to Remember logo and all on it tomorrow. My husband said "you're going to wear all of that" and I replied "Well if there is ever a time to be a walking miscarriage survivor I would say the walk is that time". So hey :) why not? I'm gonna represent the heck outta my babies darn it all! :) :) :)
