Aaron Silverman was thrilled to welcome his son, Ari, to the world. But he never got that chance, as Ari was a stillborn. On top of the grief, Aaron didn’t know what to do next. Years later, Aaron has taken that pain and turned it into the Ari Foss Foundation, which provides grieving parents a path to moving forward should they ever deal with that terrible situation. Today on Evolving Waves, Aaron talks about how the Ari Foss Foundation helps provide funerals or cremations for those with stillborn children.
