About This Event

Registration starts at 12:30 and the program starts at 1:00.

This annual event is held each October for families of our neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), pediatric intensive care units (PICU), Birthing Center and fertility clinic, and pediatric cardiothoracic intensive care unit (PCICU) who have experienced the loss of an infant or pregnancy. The event is also open to the public, especially those community members who have experienced a pregnancy or newborn loss. The Arboretum co-sponsors the event. For more information, contact Molly Gates at 734-232-7887.

There is a location change this year. Guests will meet at a welcome tent at the Arboretum entrance near the hospital's M28 parking lot. This year's walk will be a bit longer and with some inclines.
