Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page in Memory of our daughters Alex and Eilidh Beth.

Between July and September, a myriad of memories come rushing back. This year for Alex's 14th Heavenly Birthday and Eilidh Beth's 11th I aim to produce a short video for other bereaved parents who would like a memento of their child. All I ask is that, if you can afford it, donate £2 to Anam Cara Fasgadh. My own video can be viewed here https://www.facebook.com/625321086/videos/271364078088170/

On 31st July 2007 our second child Alex left us - I was 13 weeks pregnant and despite careful monitoring by the hospital her heart stopped and I was admitted for a D&C. It was the loneliest time for us, and we received little support after apart from our Chaplain and close family.

On 24th September 2010, at 34 weeks pregnant, our fourth daughter, our forever youngest child, Eilidh Beth was born still. All we received were 2 B&W photos of her - we got to spend a few hours with her, but never got to see anything other than her sweet face, never got to bathe her or dress her, never got to show her to her sisters, she spent the whole day wrapped in hospital towels.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to Anam Cara Fasgadh charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
