Our close friends son has died, he was 5 weeks old. To say they are devastated is an understatement of the highest order, we went to visit them yesterday and their are no words to describe their grief. Certainly, I have never witnessed or come close to pain in my life.
I would like to buy the mother a gift, something in memory of her son but I'm finding it impossible to find anything that doesn't contain some religious undertone, by which I mean references to Angels, being in heaven, looked after by God etc etc.
another friend has bought a memory box and the mother is planning to have jewellery made with his hand/footprints.
Does anyone on here have any idea of what or where I could buy something for her?
Apologies if this post is upsetting, I lnow I've been rather blunt but it's been such a massive shock to us and our friendship group that everything is a blur at the moment.
Thanks in advance.
