We have decided to run in memory of Jacob. It is called "Running with Angels" and it is a 5K run/walk through the gardens at Thanksgiving Point on Saturday June 19, 2010.You can find out more information at http://www.runningwithangels.com/ and find out all the details. This run/walk benefits Angel Watch and Utah Valley Women's Services. Those that don't know but, once we were given this diagnosis our doctors put us in touch with Angel Watch. They have literally been that...angels. They provide greif counseling, preparation information and put you in touch with the wonderful people at nowilaymedowntosleep that took our precious photos. They have been with us through this entire process helping us navigate this tender journey.The people in these organizations provide these services for free to the families of these precious angel chlidren. We want to thank Angel Watch for all they have done and want to do something to honor our son. I hope all of you will join us in running in memory of Jacob and help these extremely phenomenal organization that help make these extremely difficult times a little more bearable. You can register online like Reed and I did but let us know that you are joining us for the run/walk because we want to do something like t-shirts for everyone joining us to honor our son. We hope you can come help us support these great organizations.All our Love Reed and Cassy
We did that race three years ago with a big group of family and friends wearing Angelbabiesinfo.com t-shirts. It's a wonderful race venue, and the energy there is inspiring. That year, they released doves at the starting line. I haven't been able to do it the last couple years because of other schedule conflicts, but I see that it's been moved to June, so I'll have to recheck my calendar. It's a wonderful way to give back.
