Texarkana hospital to have event for families who've lost babies

CHRISTUS St. Michael is having A Life to Remember at 10:30 a.m. May 4 in the hospital's serenity garden.

The event is to honor and comfort mothers who have experienced the loss of an infant.

"When a mother experiences the loss of a baby, she faces a journey where hope and healing are needed," said Antoinette Peters, chaplain at St. Michael Hospital. "In honor of these mothers, we will gather to remember the lives of the babies who were loved and died in the early weeks and months of their precious lives."

The ceremony, at the center of the Life to Remember event, is dedicated to babies who die each year through pregnancy loss, stillbirth or newborn death. The event is open to all mothers, not only St. Michael patients. All family members and friends are welcome to attend.

This marks the sixth year for A Life to Remember.
