Run to Heal

I know why you have found this page and I’m sorry you are here.  My heart is with you.  Please let me accompany you on this journey.  After the stillbirth of my daughter, running has saved my life and I would be honored to dedicate one of my runs to your baby who was born too soon.  

Please fill out the below form and I will carry your baby’s spirit with me as I run through beautiful woods and countryside.  I’ll take a picture of his or her name on my run to share with you.  If you would like, I'd love to share your story on my blog, because your baby is loved and deserves to be remembered by all.

If you have any trouble with the below form, email me your name, your baby's name (if given), sex (if known) and your story at: jdillonwilson@gmail.com. 

About run to heal:

I run to heal.  It’s where I learn to hold my grief in my heart as love.  It’s where I practice putting one foot in front of another.  It’s where I honor Quinn and other babies who are gone too soon.  In preparation for my first Mother’s Day as a parent to both a living and dead child, I asked my friends and community to dedicate a workout to Quinn.  This was a powerful, soulful, and healing experience.  I felt lifted up and loved by the community.  I was humbled that so many people carried Quinn’s spirit with them.  I hope I can accompany you on your journey after child loss and hold you in my heart.  It is an opportunity for me to honor your child and learn his/her and your story.  Together, we will learn how to put one foot in front of the other and run to heal.
