I saw trees falling and roofs flying - survivors tell their stories of Typhoon Haiyan

New mother Rowena fled her home during Typhoon Haiyan with her one-month old son Patrick. Now they're staying in a crowded village hall with hundreds of others left homeless.

Read her harrowing story and see how you can help victims in the Philippines: http://wva.me/storiesofsurvival

Miscarriage and Stillbirth Support Groups

The two main organisations I found to be helpful after my miscarriage, are SANDS (Stillbirth and Neonatal Death Support and Bonnie Babes. SANDS Queensland is now on Facebook and I think it's a great idea

https://www.facebook.com/SandsQueensland/. They also have a Blog Spot http://www.sandsqld.blogspot.com.au/

SANDS also has coffee mornings and holds Remembrance Services to commemorate babies who have died under 20 weeks. They also offer a listening ear, run by volunteer parents who have been through a similar experience.

Bonnie Babes Foundation had a coffee table book which they put out once a year, called "Pride of the Nation" (our son was in the 2008 edition!). They also had a forum on their website (now defunct).
