Good Afternoon,
My name is Shasty, and on 19th of September this year during the covid pandemic I found out our precious baby boy had passed away unexpectedly. There was no reason for why this horrible thing had happened. Our entire world shattered around us, as we struggled to accept what we had been told. On 21st September I was taken into hospital and after 9hours of labour I gave back to our sleeping baby boy. I know there is thousands of women around the world that have experienced the same grief and despair we experienced.
People always are saying women need more support and help when we experience the greatest grief of all. And we do.
I found something that is helping me grieve and cope with my loss, and I hope to share this with others, hoping it will be a relief and comfort to them.
I am a Jehovah’s Witness, I believe in the bible and life my life by the bible standards and morals. What is so comforting is a scripture I cherish, Psalms 139:16 “Your eyes even saw me as an embryo. All its parts were written in your book regarding the says when they were formed. Before any of them existed”. God see our beloved children when they are too small for us to see, he knows all their parts in depth and what their features will be. He knows before we meet them everything about them and when they sadly pass away he remembers our babies inside and out. Thought right now we can not seem them God keeps them safely in his memory. And the best part it, God also promises in the bible, that he soon will make our world a paradise, an Eden for all. In this paradise on earth he will resurrect all our loved ones, our babies who we never got to meet or died young, will be given back to us for us to raise in a perfect world.
So many think this is hard to believe, but after years of studying the bible I whole heartedly trust his words.
Soon when he brings about a paradise I look forward to holding my baby boy again and my 3 other sleeping ones I never got to meet.
On JW.ORG we have a wonderful video “Just around the corner” that shows the wonderful hope of our babies being resurrected.
I hope this brings you comfort and hope for you sleeping babies.

Love to all those mums out there.
