After years of trying, La Trisha Layne got pregnant and had just begun looking forward to motherhood when 12 weeks into her pregnancy she suffered a miscarriage and soon found that there was no support for the crippling grief she endured. Almost in a state of hopelessness, she took matters into her own hands and formed the Miscarriage and Pregnancy Loss Support Group.
That was in February and the group now has some 11,000 members who offer support, resource materials and other information to the many women who sometimes grieve in silence over the loss of an unborn child.
