In their own words, please read Josh & Shell‘s story…
Our son Lenny Tench was stillborn on the 9th January 2023 following a fatal diagnosis of anencephaly at our 12 week scan in Oct 2022.
Lenny was and still is, our much loved and wanted baby and myself and Josh are incredibly proud to be his parents.
Our journey to wanting to start a family began in Jan 2020 but after 2 unsucessful years, we were advised IVF was our best course of action. Our IVF journey started in May 2022 and we were beyond excited to find out in Aug 2022 we were pregnant with who came to be, our little Lenny.
The diagnosis of anencephaly absolutely shattered our world into pieces and we made the decision to continue with the pregnancy and fit a lifetime of memories into a few short months, a decision I am so glad we had the chance to make.
Lenny is our beautiful son and in his memory we have set up The Lenny Tench Foundation. The foundation will provide non-clinical items to NHS maternity bereavement suites & services which will aim to support bereaved families have access to anything that will allow their time with their baby as comfortable as possible.
