At the hospital
Today we had a TFMR as our baby had a terminal heart condition. This is my 4th pregnancy. I have two beautiful children already and then a miscarriage last year and this Bub. Sleep soundly bub and mummy and daddy will make sure your two older siblings have the best life in honour of you and your angel sibling.

Received a bear
We received our beautiful bear when we lost our baby girl Dulcie born sleeping at 22 weeks.
My partner and I didn't know about Bears of Hope until then. But I will always remember the comfort receiving the Bears of Hope bag and our Bear brought me in such a terrible time.
Our Penelope Mary Bear sits up with pride on our special shelf – And if Penelope's parents see this we just want to say thank you! and although we don't know you and never will be lucky enough to meet you, your beautiful Penelope will have a special place in our hearts! xx

Thank you for the bear. It was very encouraging to us in a horrible time. We felt comforted by your generosity and knowing we weren't alone. We lost our son "Little Roffy" suddenly at 13 weeks.

In hospital
We received our gorgeous bear after I had given birth to our beautiful sleeping baby boy, Sonny Wayne Blundell. It was so special to receive this bear and have him to take home with us so we weren't leaving totally empty handed. We have since gifted some more bears to others who will unfortunately go through what we have xx
