International Brereaved Mother's Day
Every year on the first Sunday in May, International Bereaved Mother’s Day honors mothers who have lost a child.
One of the hardest days for many women around the world is Mother’s Day. Women who have lost a child suffer greatly on this day. According to psychologists, losing a child is one of the worst traumas a human being can experience. When a child dies, a mother loses a piece of her own heart along with all her hopes of seeing that child fulfill their potential.
On this day please consider:
• Mentioning her child’s name
• Remember her child with her
• Make a donation in memory of her child
• Send her a message of support
• Let her know that you’re thinking of her
• Light a candle in memory of her child
