I’m jogging 31 miles in May for families facing baby loss
I’ve committed to jogging 31 miles in May for every much-loved baby sadly not here today.
In 2019, we experienced our own loss. At 16 weeks pregnant, our dear ‘Baby Bob’ was diagnosed with CDH. A hole in his diaphragm meant that his lower organs were in the space where his lungs and heart would develop. It was so severe that the outlook at full term was bleak. At 23 weeks pregnant we found ourselves in a situation that no parent wants to be in as we said goodbye to our much loved and wanted baby boy.
Sands ensure that everyone affected by the loss of a baby gets the support they need and deserve when facing the toughest of times. They campaign for change, provide training for midwives and healthcare professionals, and support research so that fewer babies die and so that less families experience the tragedy of losing their baby.
Sands were there to support us at our time of need. Anything you are able to donate means so much.
Thank you.
