On August 7th, 2013, I held my newborn angelic great-niece Taylor Morgan Hamilton.  After months of imagining who she would look like and what is would feel like to finally be able to see her, hold her, and read stories to her; she was finally here.  She was stillborn.   Our family was devastated.  This was not my first experience with stillbirth.  You see, I have had friends over the years who have lost  a child to miscarriage or stillbirth.  But this time was different.  I watched my niece and her husband go through one of the most horrific ordeals that a person can endure.  And I had NO idea how to comfort her.   But I did pray, listen, and thankfully learned about stillbirth.  Through my nieces' foundation named in honor of her daughter, the Taylor Morgan Hamilton Foundation and Starlight Legacy Foundation, I now have a much better understanding of stillborth and miscarriage.   While researchers try to find a way to eliminate stillbirth from happening, we all can learn how to support and encourage families dealing with this reality.  We can support research.  We can inform ourselves.   Nothing will take away the pain and heartache of missing the "Little One"  who was supposed to be here, but we can celebrate the lives of the precious "Little Ones" that have touched our lives, if only for a moment.  I am so proud of my niece as she works to give a voice to the littlest ones among us who never got to let us hear their voices.  I admire her tireless effort to increase awareness about stillbirth and miscarriage.    This walk is my way of supporting those mothers & fathers in my life that, in my ignorance, I did not know how to support in the past.   This is my way of supporting my niece and her husband.  This is my way of honoring my precious Taylor Morgan Hamilton.
