Special memorial service to be held for lost babies
People in the Hywel Dda health area whose lives have been touched by the loss of a baby, during pregnancy or shortly after birth, are invited to attend a special memorial service. The Forget Me Not service of remembrance and hope ‘for all our babies’ is for everyone affected by the death of a baby whether before birth or after. Gill Llewellyn, bereavement officer, said: “When someone experiences the loss of a pregnancy and the death of a baby, it feels as if you are the only one in the word going through such a loss, but sadly it happens more often that we imagine. Anyone who lost a child knows they will continue to live in your hearts and the service is just a chance to remember and there will be an opportunity for you, if you wish, to receive a remembrance card to place on the altar and light a candle.” This year’s service takes place on September 19 in St Luke’s Chapel in Withybush Hospital at 6.30pm. Refreshments will be kindly provided by the R.V.S For further information plea...
