Lately there has been a very insensitive game on FB wherein women announce fake pregnancies. Those of us struggling know how hurtful that has been. A good friend of mine from my Infant Loss Support Group was inspired with the idea of creating memorial ribbons to post as our FB profile picture in honor of Infant Loss Month coming up in October and as a mild form of retaliation for all those fake pregnancies. If you are interested in having her make one for you or someone you know see one or both of these two links:
Awareness Ribbon Information
or
FB Event: Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month
PS Kelly is my real life friend so if you do contact her feel free to mention my name but NOT my blog. Thanks.
This is a wonderful idea and a much better purpose for social media than silly, cruel games.
ReplyDeleteThat is such a generous and thoughtful idea and a much better use of FB to reach out to others.
ReplyDeleteI love baby Greyson's ribbon. What a wonderful response to a hurtful, thoughtless meme.
