Honour the memory of your loved one, why not give a Gift of Hope to another family?
Every Gift Of Hope that is donated or sponsored is sent with a special gift tag attached to each journal with the wording
" Donated in Honour of" or "Donated in Memory of"

So I wanted something to be able to share with her later in life and this Journal has made the perfect book of memories for me!
I am so very grateful for the time Bec took to make this for me and myself and family are very grateful thanks SO VERY MUCH :)

Logan's Story
Most people think a large family is crazy but both Peta and her husband Peter knew from the start that they wanted lots of kids.
After 14 years together and 12 years of marriage, they decided to try for baby number 7. From the very beginning everything about the pregnancy was perfect, they fell pregnant on their first try and the pregnancy progressed beautifully. The 12 week scan showed a healthy active baby and at 14 weeks his first kicks were felt.
At her 17 week check up all was great and she and her husband were eagerly awaiting their 19 week ultrasound and the chance to see their baby again and find out the sex.
Three days before her ultrasound and at exactly 19 weeks her world came crashing down. She had been feeling unwell all day and went to bed early in the hopes of sleeping it off.
At 12.50am her waters broke and at 12.55am on 14th May 2010, her beautiful son Logan James Groth was born sleeping, delivered by his daddy and much loved.
Complications meant that Peta needed to be taken into theatre due to a post partum haemorrhage, but she was assured this would not affect her chances of conceiving again. Five months later and 2 days after Logan’s due date she found out she was expecting her Rainbow Baby.
The pregnancy was classed as high risk as no reason could be found for Logan’s passing and it was classed as a silent placental abruption. At 13 weeks her specialist was so happy with the pregnancy that she was downgraded to low risk and the pregnancy was smooth sailing until 20 weeks when symptoms of gestational diabetes began to rear their ugly head.
At 27 weeks she was referred to a diabetes specialist and at 29 weeks began insulin which unfortunately even combined with a low GI diet wasn’t able to control the diabetes and at 37 weeks and 3 days, on June 2nd 2011, Oliver Maxwell Groth was born via c-section weighing 4.378kg. He spent 11 days in the Special Care Nursery due to under developed lungs, which was caused by the diabetes.
After leaving hospital he has not looked back and is forging ahead in leaps and bounds. At 5 months he has 2 teeth, can roll over and sleeps through the night. He is the most placid and delightful little boy, a dream come true.
After the loss of Logan, Peta turned to a friend who she knew had also suffered the loss of a baby, and it was her support that helped Peta and her family through the grief and then the fear and anxiety of her Rainbow pregnancy. Rebecca Aziz and Erin Carmody turned out to not only be great support and wonderful friends but now colleagues as well.
