DMC Hosts Memorial for Families Impacted by Pregnancy or Infant Loss

In honor of Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Day on October 15, 2021, Doctors Medical Center hosted a memorial for local mothers and their families.

We hosted Light the Night in our Cancer Survivor Garden, a special evening for community members who have experienced pregnancy or infant loss. For many parents, the overwhelming grief that comes with losing a child sometimes becomes a silent battle. In a time of mourning, having community awareness and support can play a critical role for grieving families. Doctors Medical Center wants the community know we are here to support them and they are not alone.

Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Day honors the babies lost to miscarriage, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), stillbirth and other incidents. It’s a time to help shatter the culture of silence surrounding infant and pregnancy loss.

If you have a loved one who has experienced this loss, take the time to give them the love and support needed to process and recover.
