To parents who are experiencing the loss of a baby

We are so sorry that your baby has died. Those of us involved in the Heaven’s Gain Ministries understand first-hand how devastating a miscarriage at home can be, and are sorry for all you are going through.
Blessings and healing, – Donna and Jim Murphy, Founders

You are not alone

You are not alone. One out of every thirty-three babies are miscarried or stillborn in the second trimester. One in 160 are stillborn or die shortly after birth. Parents who have lost a baby in miscarriage or stillbirth are still parents to that child. The baby just resides in a different place, which we believe is heaven. We are here to help. Please read our information pages for more help or give us a call (513) 888-4200.
