OMAHA – Healing Embrace and its associates take pride in helping families in need of comfort and support after losing children due to pregnancy complications. Members of the organization give testimonies, and tell how the group enlightens the community in Omaha.

Abby and Seth Hoffman give an in-depth look at how a small organization such as Healing Embrace helps and heals mothers who have lost children due to birth complications. 

“I am a lost mom myself, and when I had my last there wasn’t really anything in the community at all,” said Abby, who is a Birth Doula in association with Healing Embrace.

Abby also mentions why healing embrace is such an empowering organization, and provides support for many mothers in the Omaha area.

“I have seen the amazing work that Healing Embrace does for my clients who have lost babies and different gestation, so it’s a cause that is near and dear to me. And it’s really important to me that it’s available to as many families as possible, not just here in our area, but around the world,” said Abby.

 With many mothers suffering the loss of their children in the metropolitan area, Healing Embrace serves as a safety net for those mothers grieving the loss of their children. 

Seth Hoffman, one of the co-founders for healing embrace, shared his insight on how his organization has brought families closer together after devastating events and families who have lost children to childbirth.

“The community of people that have come together when given this opportunity is really remarkable because the organization hasn’t changed their reality but it’s given them a place to connect with other people find that common understanding,” said Hoffman.

With so many other mothers and families losing children to childbirth complications, this organization is there to give a helping hand and secure hope for these people in need.
