Team Jordy-Bug

Dear Jordy-Bug,

On October 20, 2012, Daddy and I are participating in the Share Walk for Remembrance. It is a memorial event at Creve Coeur Park (in St. Louis County) that provides families like us who have experienced the tragic death of a baby, an opportunity to openly acknowledge and remember you amongst family, friends and other bereaved families and to walk the steps you never got to take. Before the walk, there will be a service, during which your name will be read and balloons will be released in your honor. We will get a t-shirt that includes your name on it, along with many other babies who have died. We would love for our friends and family to join us, by registering to walk or by helping sponsor our walk. Proceeds from this event allow the Share group to continue to support bereaved families at no charge.

To register to walk with us, friends and family can go to http://www.nationalshare.org/2012-Walk.html. Please enter "Team Jordy-Bug" as the team name and "Kelly Sander" as the team captain. We are walking for "Jordyn Tyse-Dallas Sander." (You can walk 1 or 4 miles.)

To help sponsor our team, they can go to https://www.z2systems.com/np/clients/share/campaign.jsp?campaign=25&team=6&fundraiser=647437.

We sure would be thankful for their support and love!

Look for your balloons on October 20th, baby girl!

Love,

On March 14, 2012, I gave birth to Jordyn, the most beautiful baby girl ever. During delivery, however, she was deprived of oxygen. We lived with her in the NICU for two weeks, loving her, holding her, reading to her, singing to her, bathing her, changing her diapers, styling her full head of dark brown hair, praying over her, and sharing her with friends and family, until she went home to Jesus on March 28, 2012. These are my love letters to Jordyn Tyse-Dallas "TD" Sander; our little Jordy-Bug.
