2021 Hearts Release

Every year, the names of our beloved babies are handwritten onto teeny, degradable paper hearts that later can grow into flowers. Every October, the Hearts are released in a ceremonious, symbolic way.

It is always free to include your beloved babies names, and if you are able, it is free to attend.

This year, because there are so many additionally prohibitive factors for attending, including economic factors, we want to offer the inclusion of a photograph of your baby if you wish to have your baby’s photo held at the event. You can visit our facebook page to learn more.

The Hearts Release will be on October 15, 2021.

The event will be photographed by the illustrious Sierra Pearl Photography. When the photos are shared on our facebook page for our families, these become a keepsake for our healing journey.

BIRTH & BEREAVEMENT QUOTES

« ‹ 14 of 16 › »

She was a genius of sadness, immersing herself in it, separating its numerous strands, appreciating its subtle nuances. She was a prism through which sadness could be divided into its infinite spectrum.

— Jonathan Safran Foer, Everything Is Illuminated

No one ever told me that grief felt so like fear.

— C.S. Lewis, A Grief Observed

I am strong.

— January, founder of Birth Without Fear

When someone you love dies, and you’re not expecting it, you don’t lose her all at once; you lose her in pieces over a long time—the way the mail stops coming, and her scent fades from the pillows and even from the clothes in her closet and drawers. Gradually, you accumulate the parts of her that are gone. Just when the day comes—when there’s a particular missing part that overwhelms you with the feeling that she’s gone, forever—there comes another day, and another specifically missing part.

— John Irving, A Prayer for Owen Meany

They say time heals all wounds, but that presumes the source of the grief is finite.

— Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Prince
