Good-bye Chaplin Kilonzo


I have only been able to know this wonderful man for the past 7 or 8 months, and even in that short amount of time my life is changed since knowing him. He has such a kind way about him and really gets you to understand what you're feeling. I know that the group wouldn't be what it has grown to today, without the work he has done to make it grow.

If you're reading this Chaplin Kilonzo, you better come back an check in often. Personally, you will always be a part of my life; as the people who pass thru it now in a positive way, will be as well. Good Luck in whatever you do and wherever you go!!

June Meetings

This month Chaplain Kilonzo will be leaving us. He has done such a wonderful job and been so caring in every meeting. I'm sure that I can say for all of us who have gotten to know him, that he will be surely missed.

The 9th will be our meeting for those of us pregnant or thinking of trying. On the 23rd will be our regular meeting. It wall also be the last one for Chaplain Kilonzo, who will also be introducing us to the chaplain taking his place.

We wish you well! We couldn't be where we are or the group we are, without you...

NILMDTS

Last night we discussed the new information Womack finally has about Now I lay me Down to Sleep. The group talked about what more could be done and am super excited that Geri agreed to have some pamphlets put in the grief handouts they have in L&D. What's more, and possibly more important, is we also discussed the option of having the photo sessions brought up in prenatal/birthing classes.

As much as this might scare a lot of parents, it is also a reality that they should be prepared for. It's not something you want to think about when you're pregnant, but I remember being blissfully ignorant...
