Molly Bear Testimonials

Jaden and Lucas

My molly bears are so special to me because not only are they way for me to physically, even though symbolically, hold my babies, but they are a tangible way for my daughter to interact with her brothers. I've have two angel baby boys- Jaden (stillbirth) and Lucas (born at 26 weeks, lived for one month in the NICU). They are in my thoughts and heart all the time and I just want to express my gratitude to the founders and volunteers at Molly Bears. You truly make a hard thing just a little easier.

Brady

Our Brady Bear is a true blessing to us. He is in all of our family photos as he represents the little boy that should be there. It's nothing in true comparison of our sweet boy sitting on our laps, but to us this is something that can be there with us, that signifies him, and his life. Something that shows that he did exist- and still does in our hearts. That he was, and always is, a part of our family. It's something that we can hold in our aching arms when we are missing him the most as we make these precious memories without him. Our Brady Bear has made family picture enjoyable again. A priceless gift to a grieving family's heart.

Mack Thomas Simmons

Our Mack bear brings something tangible to hold when our angel seems so far away. It's a reminder of his life and a way to incorporate him into our family until we hold him again

Logan

Our "logan" bear allows us to have something physical on important days that we want to include our baby boy in. We just celebrated Logan's 1st Birthday in Heaven and it gave us so much comfort. His 3 big sisters give it hugs and kisses and I think it eases their heartache as well.

Levi Mitchell

Our Levi bear joined our family just before the holidays, 9 months after losing Levi. His older brothers instantly fell in love with bear and I'm sure his rainbow sibling, born just 10 months later, will also feel the connection to the bear. Our Levi bear is a permanent addition to the family and helps fill the void that was left in our hearts. Thank you Molly Bears for all you do. Levi's bday was in March and we will be making a donation in his memory.

Amelia

Maddox

We lost our son Maddox in February 2016. We received our Molly Bear only a week after his first birthday. Our Molly Bear is a huge part of our family. We feel that it's a perfect way to represent our angel in all of our pictures & attending holidays & special events.
He provides so much comfort and helps fill a hole in my heart. Feeling Maddox's weight laying on my chest again is an incredible feeling.
This picture was taken about a month after Maddox's First Birthday. We are expecting our rainbow baby and of course our Molly Bear helped fill in for Maddox.

Alayna

We received our bear in the fall of 2011, just prior to the first angelversary of our first born daughter Alayna. Since then, the Alayna bear has become a part of our family. She's included in our family photos and she shares a room with 2 of her 3 younger siblings. The Alayna bear has provided us a tangible source of comfort. Feeling the weight of Alayna in our arms helps fill the permanent void in our lives.

Carter Dobbs

Having our Carter Bear means having a little bit of Carter to hold in our home.

Theodore

The first day I received my molly bear I cried so hard. I cried because I had forgotten what my son felt like in my arms, he weighed 7lbs 10 oz. I was so happy to have something I could hold on to and love when I had those really bad days. I remember on more than a few occasions I'd wake up with my molly bear on my chest, as if I was sleeping with my son. I can never have my him back but my molly bear gave me a chance to have a small part of him and there's no way I could ever repay the people at Molly Bear's for that. They are angels in the darkest of hours for parents grieving their babies. I am so grateful for my molly bear!

Riley

Our Riley Bear is so important to us; this bear represents a person so pure, they were asked to skip our earthly world entirely. We are nothing but proud and excited to show our Riley Bear and we celebrate his birthday every January.

Adriana Natalia Adamo

This is a picture of my Adriana Bear. Adriana was a full-term baby and was over 8 lbs when she died at 12 days old. Adriana was our first baby. She was severely injured during labor and delivery and wound up brain dead because her injuries were so severe. She would be 7-years-old now. I love having the Adriana Bear to use in pictures so that my whole family can be represented. Adriana Bear has a green ribbon because Adriana was an organ donor and was able to donate 5 major organs to save 2 other babies' lives.
