A few other things I wanted to mention. 1) If you are our friends and have been too scared to be in touch with us for the last eight months, please do not let that keep you from coming to Maxie's memorial. We are not angry and it would mean a lot to us to see you there. If you are uncomfortable talking to us, there will be plenty of other people to talk to. I promise. I won't be offended if you don't want to approach me. I know that it is scary to talk to someone who has been through a loss like ours. 2) There are still many seats left for Maxie's Benefit. Don't forget to register online at: http://www.jnf.org/about-jnf/events/2012/benefit-for-maxie-leviss.html. You won't receive "tickets" but your name will be on the list at the front door. 3) If you cannot come, please consider supporting one of our 5k walkers/runners. They are raising as much through their efforts as the tickets to Maxie's benefit have so far raised. Ted and I feel so lucky to have friends that have put themselves out there to support us and demonstrate their love for us and our baby through their actions. There aren't enough words to thank them: http://www.jnf.org/support/tributes/in-memory-of-max-leviss.html.
4) Lastly, and most importantly, if you know someone who has recently (or not so recently) had a loss like ours or if you have - don't be afraid to contact me, if you'd like. I am still early in my grief but further along than many (it breaks my heart that babies continue to die all of the time in fact). I do like to connect and give and receive support as much as possible. Please don't feel weird approaching me. Even if you don't know me. You can email me at teddyabby at gmail dot com.
