Whirlwind and Thought Processes

The last few days have been a whirlwind of non-stop on the go.  We finally received some money we were waiting on, so its been a lot of essentials that we have been out getting and making sure things were taken care of.  On top of that, we are also car hunting.  No luck there yet.  But it has been quite nice to be able to do some things that we normally wouldn't be able to do, as well.

So someone asked a thought provoking question, on a message board I am a member of, that has had me constantly thinking.
"If you had a talk show, what would your first show subject be?"
And this is something I have never thought about, but immediately I knew it would be Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness.  I started thinking logistics, segments of the show, even a celebrity guest (Lisa Ling) who is an advocate for the cause.  It really hit me hard how beyond important this issue truly is to me and how heavy it weighs on my heart.  I think I want to start finding ways to help educate people about miscarriage, stillbirths, and infant loss.  As my mom had mentioned a few weeks ago, it has always been a higher percentage than most people realize AND yet is still a very taboo topic that so many still try to brush under the rug or hide in the darkest corners of the closets.  Its about time we spoke out already.  Children deserve someone to speak up for them when they themselves never get the chance.  Now if only I had a talk show. Hmm.
