The White Pumpkin Story: Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness on Halloween
As Halloween approaches, homes across the country begin to glow with orange — but among them, one color carries a different kind of meaning.In this special Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month episode, host Jackie Celske sits down with Jennifer Giles, author of the viral poem “The White Pumpkin,” who found her words turning into an international tradition of remembrance and awareness.
Jennifer shares the story of her daughter Madelyn Grace, how one late-night moment of inspiration became a global movement, and how families everywhere now use a single white pumpkin to honor their angels each October. Together, Jennifer and Jessica reflect on friendship, faith, creativity, and how one act of love can connect thousands of families walking through loss.🎧 In this episode, you’ll hear:
- The story behind The White Pumpkin poem and how it became a symbol of remembrance
- How Jennifer has partnered with others to help families honor their babies in beautiful, tangible ways
- Creative ideas for raising awareness during Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month and beyond
- How faith, friendship, and storytelling can help turn grief into connection
