angel pocket 1

The fetal demise pouch is used for early losses, or infants that are too small or fragile to be dressed. On request, nurses take pictures of the babies before burial for the families.

grief & sewing

Constant busy work keeps me sane!

O MY F-in-Hymer Maude!

I’d rather be poor than driven over the edge by the people who are supposed to care for my child in my absence!

missed Natalia

I lay my head upon the urn
of cold uncaring stone

Ode to baby spice

Blessed peacefulness finally attained

This beloved companion beastie

Then no words seem appropriate
