Thank
you for visiting the "Families Forever"
child loss and Foetal diagnosis
support group .
The "Families Forever" Foetal diagnosis & child
loss support site strives to bring hope and support to families who have
or are experiencing pregnancy and child loss in any non-voluntary way, a fetal diagnosis of their unborn baby and the parenting of a child with a disability.
We provide support for all those families and strongly believe that we provide adequate services
for families that have or are receiving a diagnosis of their unborn baby
or newborn as having walked in their shoes and committed to educate the
community on the implications of having a child that has a condition or a
fatal illness. We
offer a complete online community where all parents can
access support 24/24 as well as weekly meetings. We strive to understand and assist
parents going through the birth of their special child, or its loss.
We have recently separated my daughter Talina's
memorial site from the "Families Forever" support group. Talina's story
can be found in "the stories" section of this web site
Anyone wishing to become a
volunteer is encouraged. No minimum hours or job!
Let's celebrate together the special lives of our children.
