34: Ada & Brayden

This episode remembers and celebrates Ada and Brayden, two angels born sleeping. They are so loved that they are inspiring their mothers and families to "do better" for other families through an important project for the Quad Cities. Lyndsey Day and Jess Buntemeyer join Denise to talk about raising money and support for the No Foot Too Small Birthing + Bereavement Suite at Genesis East Hospital in Davenport.

From NFTS: "NFTS envisions a world where families experiencing infant loss are offered options, privacy, peace, and a place for healing.

Imagine delivering a baby - stillborn at 39 weeks - in a room surrounded by other healthy babies breaking out in their first cries.

Imagine your 20 week ultrasound and learning there is no heartbeat. Where would you want to deliver?

Imagine delivering your baby - knowing (s)he will only live a few hours - would you want to be somewhere quiet - somewhere private - to soak up those precious + fleeting moments before your child takes his/her last breath?

Birthing + Bereavement Suites don't currently exist in the United States - although they are common place in other parts of the world. We are working to change that."
