Angel babies is a program by Hinds Hospice, founded by the AMAZING Nancy Hinds. Angel Babies Program provides grief support to families who have a pregnancy or an infant diagnosed with a life limiting condition. She is an angel and has done so much in our community. Her story is here. You must read. I took a picture of her (below), as she gave medals to each person who finished the walk. She is so cute. She saw the Ryan shirts, with his picture on the front of my moms shirt and she wept. She is so tender- hearted and that really meant a lot to me, being that she never met him. Jake has worked with her through business however, and so she knows Ryan's story.
My aunt and uncle, mom, sister, and little brother all came to walk with us and support us in honor of Ryan.
After the walk we donated money towards the cake walk, which we all participated in a felt like little kids in grade school again :) The kids were happy when their number was called and they won a cake.
After the cake walk we bought a few angel baby souvenirs and then wrote our balloon messages to Ryan in heaven and released them. By now Ryan has received many balloons and messages over the past almost 4 years! Can't believe it. It was a beautiful and special morning remembering our little boy, grandson, nephew, and great-nephew.
This is Jake taking a picture of us finishing the walk ~
