Our story…
Hi everyone,
It's almost time for this year's Butterfly Run! This year is another virtual event and we hope you can run/walk (wherever you are) to help raise awareness for this great cause. This year's Butterfly Run will be held October 1st.
The Butterfly Run aims to raise awareness and support around pregnancy loss, infant loss, pregnancy after loss, and infertility in Ottawa and surrounding areas. All proceeds from the run are donated to Roger Neilson House (RNH), a pediatric palliative care hospice.
Our beautiful daughter, Ellie Lynn Murphy, was born peacefully on June 12, 2019. Our team, Unicorns for Ellie, will be walking this year to raise money for the Roger Neilson House. We hope you will join our team and make this the best year yet!
We hope you can join us and look forward to seeing posts of your walk/run in support of the Butterfly Run this year! #Unicorns4Ellie #ButterflyRun
“Yes, it is true that I never got to see all that this world holds; the flowers, the trees, grass -- or a bright sunny day. Not even the smiling faces of my loving family. But in my heart I have seen all of these things, even in my short time.”
