Donate a Cuddle Cot for Thatcher
February 8th, 2015 I gave birth to our son, Thatcher Cole. We had just hit our third trimester and he was stillborn. Our famliy was devastated.
Because he was stillborn, the time we got to spend with him was limited. When someone passes away or is stillborn, the normal cycle of life starts to occur and the body starts to change.
Our hospital did not have a Cuddle Cot available, had they we could have spent more precious time with our son.
A cuddlecot is a chilled bassinet that allows a family more time with their child. It affords families the opportunity to build precious memories that they woud not otherwise get. It would have given us more time with our son, time we can never get back.
We want to raise the funds so that we can donate a CuddleCot to our hosptail in Thatchers honor. I wish we were in a place to donate one on our own, but we are not so we are seeking the help of our friends and family. If we exceed our goal, we hope donate Cuddle Cot's to other area hospitals to give families like ours a chance to build memories.
This is the good we hope to be able to do in the face of our loss and a way to ensure that Thatcher is remembered. A way to ensure that his loss has a purpose.
Please reach out to us with any questions. We have tons of information on the Cuddle Cots and the program that we can provide if you have additional questions. There is also a way to make a donation though another outlet so that it is tax deductible if you so desire.
Much love to you all and thank you for taking the time to read this and supporting our mission.
