Join with a positive group of healing parents that began online 12 years ago...
This site has been active for 12 years. We were one of the first sites to have interactive email exchange..long before forums and blogs. What parents were saying and experiencing then is much like it is today. Though, there is an increase in medical and emotional support because of advocacy and awareness programs. Reading through others' stories can help you understand that others have "been there" and survived. Healing does happen.
Visit often..
Please take your time. Our needs change as we move t-h-r-o-u-g-h the process of grief in order to heal. As bereaved parents, ourselves, we understand the need to slowly work through your grief.
Parents helping parents to heal....
We offer this site, forums, our groups, and materials to help you as you heal. We have found that giving back to our community in memory of our babies is healing and a wonderfully, positive way to remember these special children.
Parent Support for Healing
Please seek professional and/or medical help for more support in any way. This site is not a substitute for professional guidance.
Sincerely,
Marcia McGinnis,
Webmaster and Co-Founder of SHARE Atlanta
