Story

23/1/22 we were told there was no heart beat
26/1/22she was born sleeping

21/2/22 Lily Rose Gavin was laid to rest

No parent should have to hear those awful words but tragically we were told that at 35weeks our daughter had no heartbeat. Our world collapsed around us but together, along with the help of our family, friends and the amazing Held in our Hearts charity we have somehow managed to function each day
#
This has truly been the hardest and worst time of our lives. There have been many tears shed and there will be many more shed over the years
#
We will always remember Lily in everything we do, she was loved since we knew she was coming into our lives and she will be loved throughout the rest of our lives
#
Held In Our Hearts has provided us with support and advice throughout this awful time and I have decided to try and give back by raising money for them so that they can continue to support not only us but the many other families that have been affected by similar tragedies.
