Beltane

I have posted the story over in the Premature Birth section. My friends baby who was born at 26 weeks passed on Tuesday night after after a 19 day battle. I am going to attend the funeral service on Saturday and was hoping you ladies could share some info with me. I am in so much agony over her loss, I want to do something special and meaningful. Is there something in particular anyone did for you that really touched you and brought you relief? I know that just being there is going to mean a lot to her but I want to do more. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I really just think being there for her is the best advice. Just letting her cry on you when she wants and back off when she wants. If you want to get her something nice try looking on www.alexandrasangelgifts.co.uk/ there are some lovely things on there.

I think the nicest thing someone did for me was buy me a little angel and attached a really nice card to it. The card read something like "This angel has come to protect you and help you through these hard times." I can't remember exactly as I haven't read the card in a while but the angel figure sits on my mantle piece.

Hope this helps x

For me it was just the words people said to us and being there for us
