WHEN A CHILD DIES

When a child dies, the parents begin the long process of bereavement.  They are immediately experiences a flood of emotions, shock, numbness, denial and disbelief.

In an effort to offer support with grief issues, the staff at Dimiceli & Sons has put together several resources for families to contact.

The first is The Sweet Pea Project - www.sweetpeaproject.org  -  The Sweet Pea Project was created by Stephanie Cole after the death of her daughter Madeline, as a way to honor her memory and reach out to other bereaved parents.

The Sweet Pea Project offers comfort, support and gentle guidance to families who have experienced the death of a baby.  Sweet Pea Project Blankets have been donated to hospitals across the country and a new Book Donation Project was launched in June 2010 after the release of Stephanie's book, Still.
