Welcome to Helping Hands Publications   Labor of Love My Latest Book   Labor of Love stems from the many lives the author encountered during the years she worked in Labor and Delivery.  Pregnancy loss/infant loss has such a profound affect on marriages and many of the marriages don't survive such a loss. Pregnancy loss is greatly misunderstood and undermined in importance in the eyes of society.       Sandi hopes to bring encouragement and validation to the families who have suffered a pregnancy and/or infant loss. It is important for the families to know they are not alone in what they feel and have felt in the past or in their need to know what they've lost, both at the time and in all of their tomorrows. Hi and Welcome to our website and informative resources re: grief and loss, miscarriage, infant death, foster children, adoption, and health issues and life issues (including wills, death, probate) Out of a desire to provide people an organized and concise tool to keep track of their health history and on going medical conditions, "A Medical History and Health Diary" was created.  Medical Diary As a RN, wife, daughter, mom, foster mom and grandma, Sandi has been a guest speaker for child abuse vigils, foster parent conferences, women's retreats and nursing in-services.  Her areas of expertise are grief and loss related to families who lose a pregnancy or an infant, grief and loss experienced by foster children and the sharing of her own personal life of being a foster child, being adopted, and years later, searching out her biological family.  She has spoken on women's wellness as well. Being owned by a RN, this site would like to provide health information and public information for you.
