Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep is honored to offer all families an online source for support and healing. Share your feelings and seek support from those who are experiencing a similar loss. Grieving families often feel isolated from the world because, very often, they are avoided in an effort not to say or do the "wrong thing". Please know that you do not have to be a registered member to read the information on our NILMDTS Parent and Family Forum, only if you choose to participate and post your thoughts. Many times, families just need a place to go to know that they are not alone. Let the words of our families gently guide you through your healing journey.
Please know that on the NILMDTS Parent and Family Forum our parents speak out openly about their experiences with the death of their child. What has helped them, and what has not. They are stories of great love, great loss and great strength. We have made the NILMDTS Parent and Family Forum available to anyone that has been touched by the death of a child. If you are a mother, father, grandmother, grandfather, uncle, aunt, sister, brother, co-worker or friend, NILMDTS invites you to read our stories and share with others your experience. Help us by lending your shoulder and ear to support these families and educate others about the effects of infant loss.
We have taken the liberty of highlighting some of the most read topics on our NILMDTS Parent and Family Forum. Please take a moment to browse through these pages. It is through our education that you gain knowledge.
