Termination for Medical Reasons (TFMR) Support Group
Losing a baby is a devastating experience, and having to make the agonizing decision to terminate the pregnancy for medical reasons is particularly complicated. In addition to grief for the baby, many people struggle with additional guilt, fear of judgment, and trauma. At Empty Arms, we understand this pain, and invite you to join us in our TFMR Support Group. This is a space where you are welcome to show up exactly as you are, wherever you are, with no expectations. This is a safe, accepting, and compassionate space. You are not alone!
