What if 5,479 teenagers died suddenly every day, for no apparent reason?
That number is half of the approximately 10,958 infants who are stillborn every day in the world. Approximately 50% of stillborn babies die without any known cause.
Do you think the world would sit up and take notice? Do you think doctors, medical researchers, governments would take action? Do you think there would be an outcry?
I do.
I also think the world would demand answers.
We are losing 10,958 infants to stillbirth every day. When, I ask you, will someone take notice and do something?
Every year, 26,000 babies are stillborn in America. In 2003, one of them was my son.
