Some help for our cause...

Hi all. I just wanted to ask you guys if you could sign two petitions. They are important to us because as you all know, we are coming up on the one year anniversary of the loss of our baby bean. These are things we really believe in and will only take you about 1 minute to sign both. This would mean a lot to us.

The first is a petition for google to do one of their "doodles" for the March of Dimes to raise awareness.

(from the March of Dimes website)
The rise in premature births is reaching epidemic proportions. It's time we think big for tiny babies. The idea is simple. Each year half a million babies are born too soon. Each day millions of pages on Google are seen the world over. Join the petition to convince Google that the crisis of premature birth is worthy of the top spot on November 14th!

You can see what the google doodles are here:

The petition is here:

The other is to get Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day, October 15th made a national holiday. (You can see my name on this one as I'm #8,511!)

And the petition is here:

Thanks everyone. This is an issue so dear to our heart that just a moment of your time could help women who suffer loss like me.
