💜 Say Their Name 💜
As we’ve talked with many bereaved parents over the years, there’s one thing we hear time and time again,
“People don’t say their name anymore.”
It’s as though their child never existed. A silence that can be louder than words. The truth is, for so many parents, hearing their child’s name spoken out loud is a gift. It reminds them their child is remembered, loved, and still very much part of this world.
Speaking from experience, I can wholeheartedly agree.
Our son Ritchie was born sleeping 👼. And while we knew people meant well, the way his name was avoided, like it might cause more pain, was incredibly difficult to bear.
What many don’t realise is:
✨ We want to hear their name.
✨ We love when you share a memory or story.
✨ We are already thinking of them, every single day.
So if you’re ever unsure, say their name. Remember them with us.
It’s not reminding us of loss,
it’s reminding us of love. 💜🫂💜
