Lotus Blossom Consulting has established the Jude Andrew Adams Charitable Fund to bring hope and new life to those in need. Through this grant, we are offering a free fertility treatment cycle for financially needy individuals.
This gift of life is being awarded in loving memory of Jude Andrew Adams. St. Jude, the patron saint of desperate circumstances, forgotten, impossible and lost causes is apropos to the desperate feelings of those undergoing infertility treatment. We want others to know that there is hope and opportunity even in the face of despair. Financial difficulties should not be a deterrent to having a family!
We feel blessed to have been so well received by our past clients and further blessed to have been so instrumental in helping our clients achieve their dream of parenthood. We are proud to have so many accomplishments in the infertility field in such a short period of time.
Humbly, we also know that:
"You make a living by what you get, but you make a life by what you give."
Winston Churchill
The loss of a baby has profound effects on the entire family. Upon the loss of Jude Andrew Adams, his uncle wrote this poem to express his feelings.
For Jude
Was it you
"curled in the placenta of the real"
we never knew?
Late August. Pacing the floor
of the maternity ward,
your first-born cry did not
pierce that summer night.
Jude- son, grandson, nephew,
our blood and tears
cannot bring you back
though the memory of your face
and the weight of your small body
weigh like stones
upon our hearts.
Sitting here
long after midnight,
the color of your eyes
eludes me.
What joy
prepared your birth.
