On the 30th of May, 26 + 3 weeks along, we had our Baby boy Oskar. He unfortunately was sleeping, as he came into this world. He had so much love around him and his parents had so much support around them. Oskar was a fighter and battled the whole way through, his journey. Even through the scary times. We know that he is watching over the family and especially his parents, everyday. The bear that we received at the hospital, made us feel less alone and felt supported through this tough time in our life. The bear is placed in the room, which would have been Oskar’s. When we go into the room and look at the bear, it makes us remember that their are other parents who have gone through a similar situation. We will always love you and will never forget you.

To the Zammit Family,

We are so sorry for your loss.
Thank you for your kind donation of a Bears of Hope package. We received a bear in honour of Jake after the passing of our first born, Fletch Arnold Pannell. Fletch was born still on July 5th 2023 at 39 weeks.
We are grateful to have received your bear, and hope you find comfort in knowing it has reached our family and has helped us through the darkest of days.
We were thinking of you all on Jake’s 21st birthday last year, and sending you all so much love.

Thank you again.

Mike and Sarah

Thank you to the Merchant family for passing on the gift of Bears of Hope to us.
Our bear came to us on the second day of being in hospital, Aimee was right on time and a positive light during an exceptionally dark time. To know we weren’t alone at this time provided huge comfort and a feeling of strong support from afar.

On 26/06/2024 our gorgeous boy, Austin Jeffrey Pond, was born still. After arriving at hospital and confirming his heart was no longer beating, we were gifted a ‘Sophie’ bear in memory of Josiah Finn. I was taken back by how a gesture so small provided us so much comfort during the biggest tragedy in our lives. This was our introduction to Bears Of Hope and we have been so grateful for all the resources and support we have received from them since.
