We Love Halos!
October is so beautiful here in MN. The leaves are changing color into reds, yellows, purples, oranges, and browns. It’S absolutely beautiful. October is also infant loss awareness month. In honor of all the people out there affected by the loss of a child Print Remedy is donating back to Halos of the St. Croix Valley.
If you haven’t heard of Halos of the St. Croix Valley they are a non-profit organization that provides support to families that have suffered the loss of a child. It is run by parents that want to help other parents. Before we get into too much detail about how amazing this organization is lets back up a bit.
In January of 2016, a baby was born that was close to our heart to the parents of Joe and Laura. Prior to the birth it was known that this baby named Liam had a heart condition. With surgery there was hope he would be ok. After the birth of sweet Liam it was soon realized that he had several other complications that were unknown prior to delivery. Liam was loved by many and was surrounded by many loving family members in his short time on earth. After a short period of time Liam was placed on a ventilator to assist in breathing and was not doing well. On January 22nd, Liam passed away and is in Heaven in his forever home with Jesus waiting to meet his parents someday Joe and Laura. In the days after this unexpected passing, Halos of the St. Croix Valley, supported Joe and Laura to prepare for Liam’s funeral and the upcoming days. Halos of the St. Croix Valley assisted in the memorial cards and hand/foot molds of Liam. This was Joe and Laura’s firstborn child and was a very hard journey to experience. With support it can ease that journey even more. This is a family that holds a close place in our hearts and many of you probably have families that you know who have suffered infant loss or a loss of a child.
Halos of the St. Croix Valley helps families with the following:
- Memorial planning resources
- Memorial photography
- Honoring the child on their angelversary
- Supporting the families financially and emotionally
Print Remedy would like to give back a portion of the sales to Halos of the St. Croix Valley this month to give back to all of those who have lost a child and need support. Any purchase you make on the website will go towards this Non-Profit and help support grieving parents in their time of need.
Thank you for reading our blog as always and hope you all get to enjoy the beautiful changes that Fall brings!
