Infant loss is a tragedy that is hard for moms to even think about, to glance sideways at. If I’m being honest, it hurts my heart to even *begin* to imagine what it would feel like to give birth to a child who would be born sleeping or die shortly after birth. Yet, it is a grief that some moms come face to face with every single day. One of those is my friend Jenny Lake, whose son Oliver Wyatt never took a breath in this world. He was born and died August 7, 2015, living 35 minutes without ever taking a breath, and his life has impacted mine in ways I had no idea would be possible. Jenny allowed us to share Oliver’s story here on ForEveryMom shortly after his birth and I know it touched hundreds of thousands of people. I didn’t even know Jenny when she allowed me to share Oliver’s story, and now we are good friends…so that is just one way Oliver changed my life.
