www.uk-sands.org The death of a baby is a devastating experience. The effects of grief can be overwhelming, and in the early hours and days parents can be left feeling dazed, disorientated, isolated and exhausted. It can be hard to take in information, to make decisions or to imagine how you are going to cope. At Sands there are people who understand what it's like because many of us have been through this experience ourselves, and we are here to offer support and information when you need it.

http://www.authorhouse.co.uk/Bookstore/BookDetail.aspx?BookId=SKU-000426593 & www.youaremysunshine.co.uk Beautifully written, from the heart account of a journey through the highs and lows of the births of Shirley and Tim's 3 beautiful children. It tells of the pain and heartache following the still birth of Heulwen, their daughter and the births of their 2 son's following that loss. Shirley and her health visitor's growing relationship shows that with the right care and support a positive effect can be seen on the family as a whole during their difficult times . I feel privileged to have shared in your Journey, couldn't put it down. xx Thank you so much for finding the strength to write xx
Baby Loss Memorial Gifts
http://blanketsforangels.webs.com/ & http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=202895321460&v=info#/group.php?v=wall&gid=202895321460 As some of us know first hand when a baby passes the hospitals dont do much...I was lucky to get a bear so I would not leave with empty arms but was not lucky enough to get hand prints, foot prints or even a blanket for my angel...They had him lying on a face cloth and was going to through it out, if it had not been for my mother I would not have the cloth he was lying on. Because of my loss and experience with my hospital I have decide to start knitting Blankets for Angels... So no other grieving parent will have to go through what I went through...These blankets will be giving to the parents to remember their baby forever...
