To every mother carrying both love and grief, we see you. We honour you. We stand with you. The strength you hold is immeasurable, the love that persists, the courage to navigate uncertainty, the quiet determination to move forward while holding space for what was and what could have been. In your steps, there is bravery. In your grief, there is love. In your heart, there is resilience.
We acknowledge the thousands of TFMR parents who have found solace in support spaces, as well as the countless others who have not. For these individuals, we hope this day of awareness helps you find the support you deserve. You belong. You matter. We see you.
While we provide dedicated support for TFMR parents who have made the difficult decision to end a wanted pregnancy due to fetal or maternal medical crises, we also acknowledge that the decision to have an abortion is deeply personal. We support all who have made this choice, knowing that every decision is made with strength, love, and personal truth.
