If you know  a couple who has been told that their baby will be stillborn or live just a short time after birth, please let them know about two programs for families like them in the Inland Northwest.

Forget-Me-Not at Sacred Heart Children’s Hospital walks alongside families in this journey from the moment they find out.

The MISS Foundation, Spokane chapter , offers support after parents leave the hospital.

Here’s the link to my Sunday story .
