I need a very special card made for two very close friends of mine, whose 2 day old baby died on Saturday. They asked DH and I to be with them whilst they turned the ventilator off and cuddled him as he passed away. I have so much that I wnat to say to them and want to to write but all the cards in the shops just don't seem appropriate. If anyone can help I would love to hear form you.

Aw Bucksmum! Sad How very, very sad!

I could help out if you still need someone! But we do need to be quick of the mark as I am away on my hols later on this week.

If you need to, email me on dinglescards at yahoo.co.uk with some of your word/emotions...and I will make a card up and pop it in the post to you.

Have a look on www.picturetrail.com/dingledel
to see if you have any preferences. BTW, I do usually charge and give commision to the Downs Syndrome Group, but on this very sad occasion, please let it be an extra hug in an envelope, sent from me!{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}

Thank you I have emailed you what I forgot to say is I would like a reference to Sam birth on the card and not just a sympathy card if that makes sense

Perfect sense!

I have emailed you Bucksmum.

I have asked Bucksmum and she doesn't mind me showing the card I made for her.

I actually "enjoyed" making it in a very weird way....even though I was in tears at several times.Sad

I never got to photgraph the last few pages as it was a mad rush to get it ready before we went away on holiday. The last pages were decorated but included a blank space to write a personal message and a little pocket to include photograhs, baby tag....

I hoped I helped a little in keeping the memories of little Sam close in their hearts.

If you would like to see look in new photos \link{http://www.picturetrail.com/dingledel\here}
