8 years and 11 months ago my son Zachary Heath Francis was born at 24 weeks and 18 hours later died in my arms from a brain hemorrhage. I received a lovely support pack which helped me but I did not receive a bear. Today 12/05/20, nearly 9 years later I received this beautiful bear and as I opened it I burst into tears and hugged it so tight. Thank you to the Gunning Roos and Rooettes Special Babies, I will cherish this bear for eternity

Dear Bears of Hope and the family of beautiful baby Doward,

Thank you so much for the honour of receiving our Bear of Hope, in loving memory of your baby. This bear means so very much to our family after the loss of our daughter Emma Rose on 10th March this year.

Instead of bringing our daughter home from the hospital, we were at least able to have this wonderful bear to hold and it has brought me great comfort. I feel connected to Emma when I cuddle and kiss our bear and want to tell you how much I appreciate it. Thank you so much.

All our love,

Joey, Rob and Abel.

I received Billy when I had my first loss and D&C. Now it keeps me company after my second loss just 7 months after. I didn’t want to get another bear as Billy represents both of my boys ❤️

Thankyou so much to Elyzabeth’s Family, I burst into to tears and hugged this bear so tight when receiving it in the mail. We will cherish it forever! We lost our son Harvey just over 2 months ago and it has been the hardest time in our lives, and although it sucks so bad that many other people have gone through this, it helps to know we aren’t alone in this heartbreak. ?

I’m so sorry for the loss of your daughter ?
