My Musings

Picture-Perfect

Meme (noun): An image, video, piece of text, typically humorous in nature, that is copied and spread rapidly by internet users

I have previously said that for this Baby Loss Awareness Week, I wanted to capture different ways of raising awareness, away from words. So my last blog was on numbers and statistics, this one is based on images.

Since losing Summer, I have seen thousands of baby loss posts on Instagram. Those shown below are a collection of the ones I’ve saved; posts which have all deeply resonated over the past seven months.

I am trying my best to comment as little as possible. Instead I will simply post the link to some of my previous blogs, where I feel an image sums up the blog message well. It’s amazing how there are so many of us, feeling the same thing, yet conveying it all in our own unique way.
