Since become and angel mum I have been pleasantly surprised as well as shocked and disgusted with how other behave towards angel parents.
I am in a few support groups online for bereavement after the loss of a child, the people in these groups are incredible, some of the most caring and courageous people I have ever had the pleasure to speak to and interact with, these people have an understanding way beyond most others.
Unfortunately as with light the opposite is dark the same can be said for people, I have seen people treated awfully following for loss of their little ones, people blamed for what happened, people hurt because of the mindlessness of others. I have seen people being complained about for posting pictures of their angels, people's thoughtless family members making comments without thinking that leave bereaved parents feelings their angels are forgotten. Judgements passed by people who are nothing to do with the situation or people involved.
As an angel parent myself I can say we don't need this at all, we already judge and question ourselves more than enough, if you are genuinely interested in finding out an angel parents story then ask them.
When someone ask how many grandchildren, nephews or nieces you have include our angels they are still our children, do not ever try to place blame at an angel parents feet for the nightmare they have found themselves in, put yourself in there shoes, in my case I watched my daughter take her final breaths in my arms knowing neither I nor the medical team could do anything for her, so for me if I even think someone is saying anything against it I see red.
Angel parents are strong caring people who don't need blame, judgement or pity just a little understanding and support from time to time.
