St. Francis Little Ones Lost

I want to first stay by saying how sorry I am to any families that can connect with this post. Jordan and I know and understand your pain and I would do anything to take it away for you. To give you your sweet babies to hold safely in your arms. To help wipe away all the tears that no one else sees.. I see you. I feel you.

It’s been exactly 3 months since we lost our baby girl. Our only chance at a daughter. Our chance to have another tiny human to love and shower with all the affection any person could want. We were blessed to have Jaden and Jett through IVF and then triple blessed when we found out about Jonah! And I will forever be grateful for my boys. But that doesn’t change the pain and loss felt when losing a baby.

On February 5th, we found out there was no longer a heartbeat. Broken and devastated, we went through everything to set up the D&C for the next day. While there, doing that, we were told that our baby would go to Cape County Memorial Cemetery and there is a memorial plaque that we could get her name put on if we wanted. We 100% did. After going by there over a month later, once I had the mental strength to do so.. I saw how St. Francis does have a small, in the ground plaque with about 20 names. Then I saw the set up that Southeast (now Mercy) has. I have pictures attached. The first four are SE and the last one is what St. Francis has.

I am thankful they have anything for me to go and sit at.. but I would love to make a bigger, more meaningful space for families to go visit and help them process their grief. So after meeting with all the people I needed to talk with, I have a total of $14,500 to raise to provide just that! I have some big places I’m still waiting to hear back from to see if they would like to donate, but I also know there are so many families that have been through the same thing Jordan and I have and thought I would open it up to anyone. If you have it in your heart to donate to make a space (which will look a lot like SE’s) for families to visit their lost little ones. It would mean the world to so many people. And if you don’t have the money to do so, then just pray for it to happen! I know the Lord will provide! I just need to be the hands to get it done!

So again, mothers of all kinds, you are worthy, loved and amazing just as you are. You did nothing wrong and it was out of your control. I’m here if you need anything!

Im excited for the day I can see Jane-Anne Kay Weiss on that monument and just go talk to her. And I want to give that to anyone else that would also like that
