My daughter was a stillborn, and my employer denied me paid leave to recover. Now I work to help others going through the same.

Liz O'Donnell is a 32-year-old who experienced the stillbirth of her daughter, Aaliyah, in 2020..

She's now supporting others like her through her nonprofit, Aaliyah in Action...

I told her I hadn't felt the baby move all day, and she encouraged me to go to a hospital to get it checked out...

I mainly held it together during the four days we were in the hospital apart from a few moments when I burst into tears and felt I was hanging on by a thread...

Aaliyah's dad helped me walk around the hospital to get my legs back up and running after the epidural, and then we were out of there...
