Dealing with a loss can be extremely painful; this grief can feel worse on certain dates during the year. Mother’s day can be a wonderful day to celebrate with your loved one but also a day which can be terrifying and full of sadness for those who have lost.

Thank you ever so much for everything you have done in creating these lovely bears for us with mums clothes. We will treasure them forever. I am so touched by the way you have talked me through each stage as it was initially a very difficult thing to do sending mum’s clothes off so thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️”
