Kamloops woman remembers her son ahead of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day Walk
KAMLOOPS — Three years ago, Michelle Ikwumonu and her husband experienced a terrible loss. In September 2015, their son Malaki was still-born the day before he was due.
“Losing my son was the most difficult time in my life,” Ikwumonu said. “It still is hard, it (was) 2015 and it’s three years later. It’s still fresh.”
Upon losing Malaki, Ikwumonu started searching for any resources that could help her through her grief.
“I found that in Kamloops there weren’t very many resources available for moms and families who lost their babies to still-birth,” she said.
