Hi, My name is Mat & I am pretty new to GTS.
I just wanted to say hello & share my story of my beloved son,whose memorial I have set up here (& is the reason I joined GTS).
Riley Bunting-Day was still born on 30th September 2010 & was originally a twin but his sibling miscarried at 13 weeks - too young to even know if it was a boy or girl. I so depseratley wanted my children and the loss I felt when the first child miscarried was awful but I was able to keep going for the sake of my unborn son. As he grew I became more excited, loving him already more than he would ever know. To then find out he too had been taken away from me destroyed my very soul. Of course I carried on, as you do but there isn't day (or even an hour) when I don't think about him. His room is still full of his stuff & I am unable to even go in there without getting upset - even now (despite the fact Dad's as supposed to be strong).
I know that his memory will always live on in me & hopefully one day in his future siblings but I just want to thank others for sharing their stories on here as I get great comfort knowing I am not alone in my loss.
I also wish to thank anyone who has light a candle for my baby son
& thank in advance anyone that wishes to - just search his name: Riley Bunting-Day or find him in my garden.
Thanks for reading my ramblings and take care, each & every one of you.

I am so sorry for your loss and heartache. My thoughts are with you and your family xxxx

Hello Mat,
So sorry for both of your losses. Mat, as a father you have every right to grieve the loss of your children, I respect you so much for that. I am sure that your Angel Riley and his twin can feel your love. After lossing my granddaughter to stillbirth I know and believe that death/stillbirth cannot break the bond of love. Mat, many blessings of peace and love to you during this very difficult journey.....

Hi Mat,
I am so sorry for your loss. I lost two babies as well. 1997 on June 25 at twelve weeks (unborn) and my son of five days (infant). He was born on March 17 and died March 22 of 2003.
It doesn't ever go away but you are not walking this journey alone. Let me know if I can do anything to help you in anyway. (There is a wonderful support group out there for parents who have lost children. It's helped me and I still attend! Would highly recommend it)
Thinking of you.
Much love honey,
Hyacinth
