Hi Karen.
Here is a donation on behalf of my daughter Nova, who passed away at 5 months old. On the night she slept in a cuddle cot I think, or, at least, she definitely slept in a cot on ice in our hospital room, so we could spend more time with her. A cuddle cot is something each and every bereaved parent should have access to, because our time with our wee angels is sooo limited and valued.
