After losing her son Tristan at nearly 35 weeks, Sheridan James turned her grief into something living, founding Tristan’s Trees, a nonprofit that honors babies lost too soon by planting trees in their memory.
Each tree becomes more than a tribute; it’s a place to grieve, to remember, and to begin healing.
Along the way, families are also rooted in something just as powerful through a community of mothers who understand that kind of loss.
ABC15's Cameron Polom met James and a family touched by her mission, showing how one mother’s heartbreak is now helping others grow through theirs. Watch the Uplifting Arizona story in the video player above.
