If you are here because you know the pain of loss, then you have found a safe place to grieve, for we too have come from a place of knowing the horror, the ache, and the pain of our loved one gone too soon. We lost our first child, Grace to a cord issue, and our lives were changed forever. We have done the hard work of grieving, it is a labor of it’s own, with no magical time table to which one can count on for it to finish.

The things that make the journey bearable are the kindnesses of others, the gentle reminders that God does care, and the wealth of resources that lets us know that we are not alone on this journey. We are not a part but the whole- a whole body. Others in the body have made it through the valley of grief and are able now to lend a hand to help us climb up out of the valley to new heights, where hope is renewed and joy is restored.

Missing GRACE Foundation serves to be that hand, to reach out to those in need and offer the sensitive and considerate care that bereaved parents and their families so desperately need in the wake of death or the devastation of infertility.

We are a faith based organization. We know that faith in God is often the first thing that one struggles with after the death of a loved one. We are mindful of this fact, and our faith based support materials are only offered upon request.

For people who are further down the road in their grief, or who are providing care for people facing infertility, adoption or loss, we hope you will find our resources are informative and empowering. We want to help you so you can turn around and help others.

Please let us know how else we can assist you on your journey. Your feedback is important to us, as we continue to grow our foundation and serve even more families.

Kindest Regards,
Candy McVicar
Founder and Executive Director, Missing GRACE Foundation
