Through my own loss
This was my first miscarriage after having 3 healthy children, very much not expected and heartbreaking. To receive the bear, and other beautiful items from bears of hope has blown me away.
Thank you to Scouts parents ❤️
Our daughter Lilly Grace Gear passed away in utero at 18 weeks 3 days, and was born at 11:11pm on 26/2/26. She is our IVF miracle after 5 years of infertility and 1 previous early loss with another IVF miracle at 11 weeks. Lilly is very loved by her mummy, daddy and big brother Lucas. We miss her so much. The bear we have received has given us light and hope during this heavy and exhausting time and we would like to wholeheartedly thank the family for their donation on behalf of their beautiful Harry. Sending strength and unconditional love. From the Gear family.
Dear Pond Family,
Thank you so much for the beautiful bear you donated after we delivered our baby girl, Hallie, at 19 weeks.
This is a heartbreak we have never felt before. We feel lost and confused, trying to navigate life without her. But we are so grateful for the short time we got to spend with our beautiful girl.
Your bear has brought us comfort in the darkest time of our lives. We hope our sweet Hallie is playing peacefully with your precious little Austin.
Thank you for your kindness and for honouring families like ours.
With love and gratitude,
Hallie’s Mum and Dad
I received this beautiful teddy when we lost our little boy Mac at 19 weeks on the 31/10/25. We are so grateful to receive this beautiful teddy at such a sad time. Our gorgeous Ella teddy now sits right beside our little Mac’s ashes.
We feel privileged to have been gifted a bear tagged in memory of Harvey Paul Sinclair and grateful to share this quiet/unseen connection with Harvey’s family.
My husband and I were shocked and deeply saddened to receive the news at our nuchal scan just 1.5 weeks ago that our baby had a fatal neural tube defect and was incompatible with life. We unfortunately had to terminate and lost our little one at 14 weeks. We have been changed by this experience and I will be navigating grief for some time to come, however I am grateful for the support of Bears of Hope at such a challenging time.
Opening the bag and seeing the bear made me cry in the hospital, it made my hands full.
Reading the message made me even more emotional that someone else experienced it and thinking of me
Our little boy Luca Elias Aitken was born sleeping on 19 February 2026 at 23:47. I was 36 weeks pregnant with no complications and we were expecting him into this world in just few weeks time. I noticed he had stopped moving and when we went for a check up, we were told there was no longer a heart beat. There was no reason why this happened.
Our hearts are broken, he will always be our baby boy. We love him so much and will miss him forever.
We received a gift bag with a special bag in honour of Bobby Hudson 21/11/22.
Our beautiful son Mason Cornelius was born sleeping on 29/01/26. It was so lovely to receive the bag and the very special bear. It has inspired us to do the same in Mason’s honour. Thank you to Bobby Hudson and his family for providing us some comfort at such a hard time. ❤️
