As you you know, the 2nd annual Butterfly Run Ottawa/Gatineau is scheduled for Saturday October 13, 2018. In keeping with last year's tradition, we've chosen to honour new families for this year's Run. As you most likely remember, last year's Run was Aaron's Butterfly Run, in honour of Rachel and Rob Samulack's son Aaron who passed away 100 minutes after birth. This year, we will be honouring babies Charlotte and Théo, along with their families, and of course, all other butterfly babies who were lost too soon. So please join us on Saturday October 13, 2018, for Charlotte and Théo's Butterfly Run / La course Papillon de Théo et Charlotte.

Charlotte's mother Anne-Marie Warren and Théo's mother Claire Pagé will be the Co-Chairs on our Executive Committee for the 2018 Run. Both Anne-Marie and Claire have chosen to share their stories about their beautiful babies gone too soon, in hopes of raising awareness around perinatal loss and supporting other families in our community.

Anne-Marie recently suffered the loss of her sweet daughter Charlotte Anne. Anne-Marie, her husband Tom and Baby Charlotte went from CHEO's NICU department to Roger Neilson House; thinking they would only be there for a couple of hours, they were blessed to live there for 38 days. Anne-Marie hopes to keep Charlotte's memory alive by supporting others who have suffered pregnancy and/or infant loss and by giving back to Roger Neilson House for their continued love and support. ​
Claire’s beautiful baby boy Théo was born with a Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH).  Sadly, he passed shortly after his birth, due to complications related to CDH. Since then, Roger Neilson House has been a huge support to Claire and her husband François, through their Perinatal Loss Bereavement Support Group. Claire hopes to honour her son’s life by raising awareness about pregnancy and infant loss, as well as giving back to Roger Neilson House. ​​
