hello thank you for taking time to view my fundraiser, I am raising funds towards a fleximort cuddle cot.
this is on behalf of close friends who have just lost their baby boy who was born asleep full term.
the hospital they were at in wales, uk only had one cuddle cot which meant they got special time to spend with their baby, but if lord forbid another couple also lost their baby they wouldn't of had this option as the hospital only had one! so we are fundraising to buy the hospital a cuddle cot at £1570 from fleximort uk.
here is some information on this valuable piece of equipment.
significantly helping parents who suffer the loss of a baby. Dealing with the death of a baby is clearly an incredibly difficult event for parents and bereaved parents should be given the option of spending Time with their baby. Providing families Timethrough the use of the CuddleCot is internationally encouraged by midwives, bereavement practitioners, still birth/neonatal charities, and academics. Time allows the family to form an important bond with their baby; whether changing a nappy, dressing the baby, taking photographs or simply just staying close and this unquestionably helps families in dealing with their loss. The problem is that in a warm room the baby’s condition can deteriorate quickly, therefore cooling the baby is absolutely essential. Transferring to and from the morgue is now widely regarded as an outdated practice as it is traumatic for parents to repeatedly go through the separation process whereas the CuddleCot allows the family to spend every moment with their baby, precious moments where every minute counts.
in memory of ynyr.
cuddle cot will be donated to glan clwyd hospital and delivery suite
