Children, Infant and Pregnancy Loss Remembrance at Sligo University Hospital

Sligo University Hospital is once again holding a virtual service to remember children and infants who have died including pregnancy loss.

Maria White, Bereavement Support Midwife at the hospital said, “Unfortunately this year again we are unable to invite bereaved parents in person to attend our Remembrance Service.

Instead we have made a short video called ‘A Time to Remember’ which captures stories from bereaved parents along with music, reflection, singing, and a dove tree ceremony with staff here in the hospital. This virtual remembrance service acknowledges the grief of losing a child, a baby before, during or after birth.

“We invite all parents and families to view the remembrance service in their own time. We want you to know you are not forgotten.”

To access the remembrance service go to YouTube.com and search ‘Spiritual care within healthcare’ or click here: https://youtu.be/wYlASaO2MzY.

The video will be available to view over the coming weeks.
