Walk for Remembrance and Hope.
On October 2nd, 2010 there was a walk for family and friends who have lost their little ones, whether through early pregnancy loss or as an infant. It was held at Creve Coeur park in STL and sponsored by the support group SHARE (www.nationalshare.org). They held a memorial service where they announced each child's name and they handed out balloons so when your child's name was called (Baby Trotter) you and your family released a yellow balloon.
They also had pink and blue ribbons they handed out for us to wear. After the memorial service the walk began, you could walk the 1 mile or the 3 mile route. We decided to walk the 3 mile route. We were blessed to have Adam's parents there with us on that day, so we all four walked together not only for Baby Trotter but for all the families that have experienced the same lost as we did. It was bittersweet to come together with everyone on that day and we plan on doing it again next year.
