My Nonprofit Reviews

On January 23, 2017, I gave birth to my beautiful boy Ezekial James. He was only 24 weeks gestation when I went into labor. Unfortunately, he was not developed enough to survive. After about 12 hours he started going into multi-system organ failure. I had to make the choice to pull him off of life support. He passed away on my chest.
I spent 2.5 years looking everywhere for support. All I could ever find were general grief support groups. I tried them, but it's a different pain when you lose your child. I felt so alone, like no one else felt the pain of losing their child. One day I came across an article about Bo's Heavenly Clubhouse donating a cuddle cot to my local hospital. I looked into the non-profit to see what it was they actually did. That is when I finally found what I needed. Bo's Heavenly Clubhouse not only sent me a care package to help me in my grieving, but they also sent me a rainbow baby package for my second born boy. I started attending support groups specifically for parents whose children have died. Not only do I no longer feel alone, but I now have life long friends and people I consider as family.
Experiencing the death of your own child is not something I would wish upon even the cruelest of people. It's not a club we want people to join. But, when that kind of tragedy strikes, Bo's Heavenly Clubhouse is there. Day, night, good times, bad times, depressed times, grief waves, it doesn't matter. That's exactly the type of love and support you need. Until you go through it, you can't possibly understand the depth of pain, the abundance of love with nowhere to go, the random outbursts of anger and or tears, the triggers, the PTSD. We need these people. They are incredibley strong for creating such an organization. They are incredibley loved. No judgement, just acceptance and understanding.
