Life begins at conception! Your child was real. Your loss is real! Your grief is real!

“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you.” (Jer 1:5)

“Every human life, from the moment of conception until death, is sacred because the human person has been willed for its own sake in the image and likeness of the living and holy God.” (Catechism of the Catholic Church, no. 2319)

“From the moment of conception, the life of every human being is to be respected in an absolute way […]; his whole being bears the image of the Creator.” (Donum Vitae, Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Introduction no. 5)
