Stillbirthday has been here for just about 2 years, and we are constantly growing.

I am really excited to tell you that we have a community over at Google+!

One of the neat things about this new community, is the ability to have online video discussions, like Skype.

Google calls them “Hangouts” – we’re going to call them “Stillbirthday Parties”.   Just casual times – no intensive subjects, just casual presence.

These are opportunities for you to see the faces of the SBD team, meet other stillbirthday families, and just chat about wherever you are in your journey.  I’m going to be chatting about some of my favorite places in bereavement support, and some of the newest things we’re working on here at SBD.

I am a wee nervous about coming out from behind the keyboard, but I think it’ll be so nice to put faces and voices to the special stillbirthday families – the newest ones, and those who have held my hand with me as I’ve stumbled along on my own grief journey for the past two years.

So, here’s the link to the stillbirthday Google community – and make sure you take a peek at the “events” link for our upcoming Stillbirthday Party!

Want an easy way to remember the day we have our hangouts each month?

The number 10 is the first time you actually see a zero in the number – even though we know it’s actually there, silently standing as a placeholder for all of the numbers 1-9.  So, on the 10th of every month, you’ll be able to see all of us, each other, the families and the people who make stillbirthday what it is.
