Sophie's Walk Toronto

On October 4th, Oakville Moms participated in Sophie's Walk. My nephew passed away at birth almost 4 years ago due to undiagnosed Vasa Previa.

This year there was a total of 7 VP babies represented. We walked in Honour Of 3 VP miracles, little Ava B., Ava J. and Mika. We also walked in Memory Of Matthew, Katarina, Jacob and Sophie. Sadly and tragically our list of VP angles continues to grow. The awareness raised through this fund raiser and word of mouth is helping to make a difference. Clearly our job is not done and we need to continue to spread the word in an effort to save some of those 130 babies that are affected by Vasa Previa each year in Canada.
