We lit two candles.

One in honour of Margaux.

The second in remembrance of all of the babies gone too soon.

We lit these candles in solidarity with the thousands of families living with empty arms and broken hearts.

We lit these candles in support of the women trying again and those who have made the difficult choice not to.

We lit these candles in acknowledgement of those who were forced to grieve in silence,

who never had the chance to say goodbye to their babies,

who were shunned and stigmatized.

We lit these candles in love and in hope.

It has been exactly 8 months since we found out that Margaux had died.
