I am so thankful that this Petition is happening and Legislation is hopefully being changed. My 13 y/o daughter was killed by a drunk driver in 2003 and I still grieve her loss today. NO amount of time is enough but at least this is a start. I am blessed to have the friends and employer that I do that have helped me over the years. Returning to work was very difficult for me because I work with children. My employer was requesting me to return after two weeks and I knew I was not ready. I pray no other bereaved parent would be placed in that situation.REPORT COMMENTS

As a bereaved parent I was lucky to have a compassionate boss qho allowed me the time I needed but I know parents who have lost their jobs because 3 days was just not enough. We need to do better.REPORT COMMENTS

When my husband and I lost our son at 23 weeks, I was able to take the time I needed because it was considered maternity leave. My husband was only able to have a week before returning to his job, and that was because he used all the vacation time he'd accumulated over the last few months. I think had he been able to have just a little more time than that we'd be in a very different situation than we are now.REPORT COMMENTS

When my 4 month old son passed away, my husband and I were both working at the same university. We received donations of vacation time from many people which allowed us to stay home for awhile. Without that support, I don't know what we would have been capable of.REPORT COMMENTS

Our daughter was a stay-at-home mom when she lost Stephen at nearly 7 months in the womb. She had the ability to remain at home and regroup, but our son-in-law, who received great support from his workplace, still probably had to go back WAY sooner than he was ready to. This modification will be a tremendous blessing to individuals experiencing the most difficult grief imaginable - the death of a child.REPORT COMMENTS

This should have been in place since the beginning of time. There is nothing worse than losing a child. We know from experience with our beautiful daughter Khalia Ali Igo. She passed away when she should have been coming home from the hospital. No one should have to go straight back to work after holding their baby or children for the last time. 7.11 lbs 20 1/2 inches And pure beauty is what she was. We miss her every single day.REPORT COMMENTS

Please amend this act to include parents grieving the death of a child. This hits close to home as my daughter lost her infant daughter in March of 2018. The pain is the worst and all mommies/families need TIME TO HEAL their broken hearts. Thank you for your heartfelt consideration in amending this act!REPORT COMMENTS
