My sister in law and brother were having their first baby after 8 years of marriage, they were naming her Madeleine....but at 8 months, out of no where, she lost the baby......it was the most devastating thing that our family could imagine!!!! One day soon after my uncle called me at home and asked me if I thought it would be a good idea if he got my brother and sister in law a stone at Disneyland, their favorite place on earth.....I immediately started crying, I knew it was the sweetest and most thoughtful thing my aunt and uncle could give them, in their time of such a loss. Madeleine is forever a part the happiest place in earth....we visit her stone every time, if you ever come across it, give her your love.

That's incredibly sweet and made me get all choked up. - TheKaJaSi  144.8 #2368 4:45PM

I am very sorry for your family's loss. It's crazy that we have so many medical advancements but some babies just don't make it and there's no reason why. I lost my first son at 6 months and I think of him every single day, almost 7 years later. Having a stone at Disneyland is a wonderful way to remember your Madeline. I hope your family has lots of support during this difficult time. {big hugs} - JennDear  16.5 #5449 7:06PM
