Millie and Louis faced the heart-wrenching loss of their twin, Skye, due to anencephaly. To support families in similar situations, they launched the “Skye High Foundation” and introduced purple butterfly stickers in NICUs worldwide. These stickers indicate that a family has experienced a loss in a multiple birth, helping to prevent insensitive comments during a difficult time.
Millie explains, “Ultimately I will never be able to stop this from happening, but the more support groups we can set up and put things in place like the stickers, the better it will be. It’s the hardest thing anyone has to deal with.” The initiative not only raises awareness but also offers support through various groups and resources.
The purple butterfly initiative reflects Millie and Louis’s commitment to helping other families navigate their grief with compassion and understanding.
