Thaddeus’s Send Off

Donation protected
This is my beautiful son Thaddeus, we call him teddy for short. This is his story and why I’m raising money. I discovered I was pregnant and was over joyed by this, I had the perfect pregnancy, no issues or complications. I was curled up watching tv with my son On the 3rd of December. I began hemorrhaging unexpectedly, i screamed and cried for help, I thought I was losing him. I was rushed into hospital. I got there and was relieved to hear his little heartbeat and a little wriggle of reassurance. 3 days later my waters ruptured, I was only 20 weeks pregnant. Labour began. A few days passed & I developed an infection, which unfortunately resulted in (after a long week of very heavy bleeding and fluid loss) my labour progressing, and I began dilating.My little boy was alive right until before birth, I remember hearing his little heartbeat of 147 not too long before my contractions intensified. My labor killed him. He was born sleeping, at 8pm surrounded by family and unconditional love. I’m receiving great help from a bereavement team.I love him unconditionally. Due to him sadly being born asleep, I don’t receive a birth or death certificate, like he was never a person at all.


Sadly, due to my current poor financial situation due to having a disabled son, I can’t get a loan or afford this sudden cost of hundreds to get him cremated. He needs to be home with his family where we can continue to care for him until we’re ready to release his ashes. It’d make my christmas less dismal knowing he’ll be coming to rest at home and we, his family can say a proper goodbye. I need him home with me and his family. This money will be used for his cremation and to go towards an Urn with a bear on. Please donate what you can, even if it’s what you’d pay for a pint, or for a small present. ANY MONEY NOT USED FOR THIS CAUSE WILL BE DONATED TO THE CHARITY SANDS (https://www.sands.org.uk/about-sands/who-we-are)
