When joining us for Part 2 of their story, Matt & Aimiee Hall discussed how powerful their last epiosde was not only for sharing Leo’s legacy but for connecting with family and friends more, who perhaps weren’t aware of the devastation they have gone through. This helped people understand more and offer the right support for the couple. This is why we do the Still Parents Podcast!!

Still Parents Podcast E.89 - Kellen and Alec
This evening, we are joined by guests Kellen and his Brother in Law Alec.
At approximately 17 weeks into Kellen and his wife’s first pregnancy Oct 27 2022, the couple discovered their daughter, Kayaneh, had not formed kidneys. Kellen and his wife decided to carry Kayaneh to full term and she was born March 16, 2023 and lived for 29 minutes in their arms.
Kellen's Brother in Law Alec and his wife were also pregnant at around the same time with a beautiful baby girl. Yeva was born on Feb. 1st 2023. Sadly Yeva immediately went into respiratory distress and required being placed on ECMO to live. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a life-saving treatment that uses a machine to temporarily support a baby's heart and lungs when they are too sick to function on their own. Yeva was diagnosed with an extremely rare lung disease that could not be treated. She was not a candidate for a lung transplant and was taken off life support on Feb 9th.
We will be talking to Kellen and Alec about their joint experiences of baby loss and a close knit family experiencing devastating losses at the same time.

We hear to often that many bereaved parents don’t hear about others experiences of baby & pregnancy loss, from those perhaps very close to them until they have experienced it and are open about it themselves.
One of the reasons we produce this podcast is to change that, to open up the conversation and make talking about baby loss a lot more normal so that other bereaved parents do not suffer alone through their grief!

Guest Jess Perry summed up perfectly, how your first experiences of baby loss is so awful and comes as such a huge shock, you almost become more prepared and ready to face it again..
Your naivety to pregnancy is taken once you lose a baby. So many of us can relate to changes in the way you think about and feel about your future pregnancy as a way of protection for if you ever have to go through the devastating loss of a baby again.

Ryan, chats with our guests Aimee & Matt Hall about how strong they are for all the work they are doing to raise awareness for future bereaved parents who will sadly experience loss after such traumatic experiences themselves.
We are stronger together & uniting in fear with other bereaved parents allows us to create very supportive networks with one another. 🤝🤍

Guest Matt Hall chatted to us about how common baby loss actually is but sadly people don’t talk about their experiences until they connect to someone else who has gone through it.
This is something we try so hard to bang the drum about and raise awareness for, to break the taboo of baby loss & normalise talking about this grief and loss to help fellow bereaved parents all around the world feel not so alone.

ahhh, this is how we feel any time we hear something you should NEVER say to a bereaved parent. *disappointed!*
Having more children won't replace the ones we have lost, or get rid of the pain of our grief.. when we hear comments like this, there is no thought there! All we need is " i am here for you"
Have you fell victim to these types of comments through your journey of loss?🙃
