This will be short.
Five months ago I wrote this entry where I asked the government of Newfoundland and Labrador to begin recognizing the life of children born still with a stillbirth certificate.
This week I got a call from Service NL and was told that systematic changes have taken place, all because of my letter. And on Wednesday I picked this up:
Thank you to Minister McGrath and Minister Crummell and especially to Ken Mullally at vital statistics for making this possible and helping to prevent families from jumping through hoops like I did at the hardest point in my life. I am so proud of my little Everlee for continuing to change the world. Her little life speaks volumes every day.
I so agree..
Bitter sweet.
There are no ‘right’ words… you made a difference for many moms who have a journey like yours… this is such an important piece of real and recognized and closure in many ways… to know that your lovely was here … ❤
That’s amazing! I’m so happy for your family. Sounds like your little lady will help change the lives of those who follow in her tiny footsteps! 🙂
Thank you Rhonda, I did not know about any of this, I guess I have some phone calls to make and Matthew will get “recognized” as well. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
