My entire family is aware of our Sophie bear and we extend to her family we send you nothing but love and hugs. Thank you for making the donation so I could receive this during the hardest days of my life, my daughters and my family. 💕 our baby girls are setting stars on fire

Words can not express how thankful we are for our bear and all of the support. We lost our beautiful Daphne Sky on the 22nd March 2022.

I just wanted to send this family a big virtual hug.
Today, at 15 weeks, I lost my little baby.
I have not been able to let this little bear go – it’s bringing so much comfort to me and my partner.
We are sending you lots of love.

Our heart goes out to Sophie and her parents, it’s been so nice to know we aren’t alone. I’m sure our babies knew how loved they were xxx

Dear Ocfemia family,

Both your family and our family have lost someone that we have never met but dearly love and miss. However, Hamburger and I have gained a bear of Hope from your family.

It was a surprise to receive a gift, but a deeply touching gesture. It honoured the life that Axel would have had on earth. Making him real and not just a memory.

This sux.

Love,

Hamburger and Shaz

One bear was given to our angel bub Leo, who was stillborn at 25 weeks and stayed with him to give him comfort.
My husband and I received another to give us comfort, tagged in honour of Flora who passed in 2021 and it is so sweet. All we need to do is look at this bear to find comfort and know our Leo isn’t far. We look forward to giving this bear to our hopeful future child.
Thank you to the Bears of Hope team and to Flora’s parents for your generosity and kindness.
May our Leo and your Flora be playing, high in the sky over that rainbow.
