This was my first pregnancy and first miscarriage. I have found it extremely difficult navigating life these past months. The grief, the guilt, the loneliness, the heartbreak, having to readjust to a new reality with no baby and becoming extremely sensitive to everything baby related. After my miscarriage I received a bear donated by another. In honour of Alessia Forgione. Your donation is truly a beautiful gift, something that I will always cherish. Thank you for making me feel like I’m not alone in this.

It’s comforting to know that we aren’t alone in the cruelest thing that life can throw at you. Love the idea of the teddy bear and being able to take something home even if it isn’t our poor little girl. This service has definitely helped us through this difficult time in life.

Thank you to the parents of those bears because in my need of losing two little twins so early is most hardest thing I went through my life and understanding other families have gone though something so similar . I just lost twins by miscarriage they was only 8 weeks and one passed about 2 weeks ago at only 6 weeks and 1 . I been adviced to give them names so I lost my father at the start of last year and I just havent got a name but I got the middle name picked so it’s been hard.

Thank you for your teddy bear!
We lost a precious boy too and your teddy gave me something to hold onto when i would try and place my hands on my belly to feel his kicks that are no longer there. I am sorry for your loss and i hope our boys are up there together making it a better place. Lots of love Holly, Doug and baby John Williams xxxx

To the parents of baby boy, Austin Ronald Horan…

Thank you immensely for your donation that was received by us in a time where there was only darkness and heartbreak. The little candle you gifted us brought us a small light in the dark, and the precious bear brought some hope, warmth and comfort. My heart goes out to you and your precious boy only being earth side for one day, but may Austin travel with you on your shoulders every day and in your hearts, always.

We lost our baby at 11 weeks – a little girl that we named Heidi.

Heidi has been buried with the “forget me not” mix in the package and regardless of whether they bloom, little baby Heidi will never be forgotten – nor with your kindness and the perspective you gave us when we needed it the most.

Thank you both again and may this note find you well and happy in this next chapter of life.

We would love to hear from you as well if you feel up to reaching out.

Warm regards

Montana and Karl
