Story
My Name is Mark Steven Larden i am 21 years old and from Killamarsh North East Derbyshire this Page has Been set up in loving memory of our beloved son Joel steven Redfern-Larden who was Born Asleep on September the 3rd 2007 me and my partner Janet Marie Redfern would like to raise as much as possible for such a great cause.
The money we raise goes towards helping other Bereaved couples who are going through the same Tragic times as we are, the charity also provides them with great help and support through Helplines and Special Sands Groups who are run by groups of parents who have also Tragically lost there Little Angels to Stillbirth.
The Groups also hold Informal Meetings for Bereaved Parents to attend if they feel it would help them talk about the loss of there child i have been told by friends who have also lost babys That these Groups Really do make a Difference in trying to Help Bereaved Parents get back on there feet again it is My aim to raise as much money as possible for Sands in the Memory of my Precious little Star who is watching his Daddy from Heaven.
I am looking into setting my own Sands group up to help Bereaved parents like myself and my partner Janet I am doing this because i feel i could make a difference and i would love the oppurtunity to help other couples in there time of need in anyway that i can alot of events over the past month have put alot of things in my life into Perspective The Deaths of My sons Joel and Kieran have Really hit me Hard but i want to fight on in life in memory of them both they have and will always give me the strength to carry on and do positive things to help other people because they are my Little Heroes they are an Inspiration to me and many others they will be forever in our Hearts and we will always love them.
I am asking you all as a parent who has lost 2 sons tragically in the space of 25 days to give Generously to this great Charity and i will support it for the Rest of my life in memory of my Little Lads and in the Memory of every other Parent who has been through what we have and suffered the heartache that these tragic events cause.
