Samantha shared her inspiring story about how her mother came to America in search of a better life. Growing up, she excelled in school and went on to attend college, where she eventually met her husband. After years of dating, they both graduated and traveled before settling down in stable jobs and purchasing their first home. Feeling financially secure, they decided to start a family. As a labor and delivery nurse, Samantha was well-informed about pregnancy and the signs to look out for to prevent stillbirth. Despite her knowledge and experience, she was not immune to the possibility of facing such a heartbreaking outcome.
Samantha shares how just at 37 weeks along she gave birth to Selena Sophia Gutierrez on October 29th, 2022.

The Wave of Light is an annual event that takes place on October 15th to honor babies who have died during pregnancy, childbirth, or infancy. It is part of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, which was proclaimed by President Ronald Reagan in 1988.
To participate in the Wave of Light, people around the world light candles at 7 PM local time and leave them burning for at least one hour. This can be done individually or in a group, at home or in a public space. Some people also post photos of their candles on social media using the hashtag #WaveOfLight.
The Wave of Light is a way for families and friends to come together to remember their loved ones and to show support for others who have experienced loss.
