Great talking with Heather Toland and hearing her story. Heather's daughter Lyla who passed away at 2 weeks old was in the Children's Hospital's NICU and her son Owen was born at Brigham & Women's Hospital prematurely at 34 and is here and healthy. Reading Books was one of the only things they could do. Heather is a Board Member of a great Nonprofit called Emma's Footprints. They help families after pregnancy and infant loss. The organization has many resources from support groups, podcasts and financial support. If you or someone you know could benefit, please check them out.
