My name is Jenny Stanley, and I want to share my story: a parent’s worst nightmare, the loss of our heavenly angel, Sydney.
The day that changed our lives forever started as a regular Sunday in August 2010. My husband, Mike, and I were having our usual battles with our three kids before church. “Find your shoes,” “comb your hair,” “tuck in your shirts,” “yes, you have to wear something nice.” But, like every other Sunday, we managed to get there right on time.
My name is Dawn Peabody and I’m from Phoenix, Arizona. Five years ago my husband, Wes, and I endured an unimaginable tragedy. We lost our beautiful two-and-a-half-year-old baby girl, Maya, to heatstroke. <link to heatstroke web page>
It happened on October 18, 2008 – a date that I will remember for the rest of my life.
My in-laws were visiting, and we were all heading out to a family breakfast. As we walked to the car, Maya ran next door to say “Hi” to our neighbor.
My name is Karla Rauch. I live in Phoenix, Arizona, with my wonderful husband, Michael, and our two beautiful boys, Ethan and Emmett. On Oct. 16, 2010, our younger son, Emmett, had a tragic accident that changed our lives forever.
My name is Scott Deming. I live in Syracuse, New York, where I am an international speaker, an author and a Buffalo Bills fan. But what really surprises people about me is that I wear pink nail polish on my pinky finger.
Why do I do it? Because I want people to notice it and ask me why. And when they do, I tell them about Amaya, my precocious, adorable 2-year-old granddaughter.
