Pregnancy, Infant, and Child Loss Remeberence

This week is Baby Loss Awareness Week, October 15th is Pregnancy,
Infant, and Child Loss Remeberence Day, and today on Sense of
Soul podcast we will be remembering Dylan Taylor. His parents,
our dear friends Angelica and Billy Taylor joined us for a hard
and very heartfelt conversation.


In 1997 the newly married couple were preparing for their
first child. They had learned through an ultrasound that they
were having a boy. Billy and Angelica were so excited to begin
their lives as parents. Everything was going well until Angelica
begun to have concerning symptoms that lead her to the hospital,
in her second trimester. 


Angelica was diagnosed with “HELLP Syndrome” a rare pregnancy
complication. It is a type of preeclampsia that causes elevated
liver enzymes and low platelet count. Many women who have HELLP
syndrome need to give birth early to prevent health
complications. 


Angelica and Billy were faced with having to make decisions that
nobody should ever have to make. However this was an emergency
and the urgency was a matter of life and death. The risks were
great, inducing labor would mean that their baby would be very
premature, but if they didn’t, there would be a chance Billy
would lose them both. 


Angelica and Billy take us back to the day they had their
firstborn, to the moments they lost their firstborn. Hear from a
fathers prespective as Billy so genuinely shares his story, learn
how they struggled in grief, yet managed to survive this
traumatic loss and find their happy once again. 


If you or someone you care about has lost a child to stillbirth,
miscarriage, SIDS, or any other cause at any point during
pregnancy or infancy. 1 in 4 women will lose a baby during
pregnancy, delivery or infancy, Please join us in raising
awareness this October for Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness
Month and share this episode. YOU ARE NOT ALONE!
