Saying goodbye to my 17 week old beautiful baby son in 1983 still haunts me everyday, the pain never ever goes away, constant reminders of meeting adults age 40 always makes me wonder how my precious son would, look, talk, be married with children of his own the list is endless and harrowing, RIP BABY JAMES, DADDY WILL NEVER GET OVER LOSING YOU X X X

At 79 years I just had a gravestone made for my baby daughter who lived six hours. In 1981. I don't want to leave this world without a place that honors her. That is where her brother and sister can go to remember me too. My heart has been there for 42 years.

I lost my premature girl 29 yrs ago. She had a small funeral and burial.. She has a headstone. Years after I lost her, my 21 yr old daughter passed. Both of their headstones are just a few feet away from one another in the cemetery. I never thought my life would come to this. It is horrible. Child loss grief lasts a lifetime

The smallest coffins are the hardest to carry. My condolences for the family..

I still grieve 58 years later. after the death of my baby girl. You never forget, you just learn to cope. It is so traumatic especially when it’s your first baby.

No parent would ever get over this loss. My heartfelt thoughts and prayers. 🙏

I lost my first baby, a girl, 50 years ago and you never forget them, she was 18 hours old. I often wonder what she would have been like. I have had two more children since then, a girl and a boy. I often think of my first baby to this day.

Thank you for explaining this from your country. It is a very emotional to know that a child has died but that he is being. Treated with dignity and care.

My heart is full of love for the little one's family. The people were compassionate and gentle. I lost my twin sons at birth nearly 40 years ago and their sister 4 years later, they are with me every day. Blessings to all those who grieve ❤️

The way you treat the dead with such love and respect brought me to tears.

That poor young father will never forget this sad event of being with his baby until the last.

Worse pain ever losing a baby mine was six months a cry every day fr my baby girl ❤️

breaks my heart to see this. my sincere condolences to the baby's family. rest in peace, little one.

All I can say, is thank God for these people! Even as a physician, there is no way in hell I could do that type of work, particularly when it comes to a child, because I just keep seeing my own child, and it just breaks everything inside me. it takes a very very special type of person to do this work, so that the family can grieve in peace without having to worry about what needs to be done before the funeral. I can’t even begin to imagine the crippling pain of losing a baby or a child, even though we are trained to keep our emotions in check, if I have to be totally honest, it’s probably the most difficult aspect of the job, because transference, despite whatever my profession says, is inevitable. As a human being, transference is a natural event, most often done on a subconscious level which we can’t even control. It takes years of practice before you’re able to put your emotions aside and do your job. I’ve lost many patients over the years, I remember each, and every single one of them, because no matter how much you try to do for them, it’s inevitable That there’s going to be a point where there’s nothing more you can do for them. Those are the days that are the hardest to Fais, and one of the reasons why I chose to relocate to research in the laboratory instead of carrying on my practice. It’s a topic many of my coworkers discuss, and it doesn’t matter how long you’ve been in the game, it’s never easy to inform a family that their loved one is going to die, or has died, and then just stand there desperately trying to give them comfort when you know that there is nothing you could ever do to make them feel better. After I sign the death certificate, that’s when these people would take over, something I simply could not do. Perhaps I’m a bit of a coward, but I always want you to become a doctor so I could help people stay healthy and alive, never occurred to me that, that wouldn’t always be the case, and that there would be many times when there was nothing I could do to save the patients life, despite our incredibly advanced technologies and medication‘s. So again, so all those who take over after we finished our job, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Wow, I actually thot that something is wrong with me, cause the last girl that I buried was in 1970 I actually lost 4 girls + 1 miscarriage,the 1st girl I lost was in 1966 I've never been able to overcome these losses, I'm 86, everyone tells me "you should be over their deaths by now, you can't keep on carrying that heavy burden all your life", seeing these comments has helped, thx

I work for several funeral homes .you hafe to have God's heart to help other people in this need .❤️

Babies and children’s funerals are the saddest.💔

What a beautiful video thank u !! And thanks to the baby's family forgetting us be apart of their loss... I hope that they are in a better place now 🙏

Caring and Beautiful handling of this little one.

Thank you for sharing this information with us. I found this video to be very tastefully done with providing the utmost respect for the deceased and their families.

I think you work is absolutely amazing, I want to be an embalmer, and I will when the time is right for me. RIP to all families shown

It is really painful for us parents but i really thanks Harmony & her team for all the hard work done.

The saddest video to watch a baby be prepared for funeral

I am so very sorry for the loss of your Angel. My sincere heartfelt condolences. 💝🙏🙏🙏😇💖

Condolences to the family and friends of this little angel, God bless all involved. Rest in peace angel.

My deepest condolences for your loss. May your little RIP

So sorry for your loss. Prayers

Has to be the saddest job ever, next to putting animals down. I wouldn't have the heart for this kind of profession unfortunately.

When my little niece died at age 2 months, the funeral director carried her little pink coffin under his arm. That was the most heart-wrenching thing for me. How little she was and how my brother and his wife cried. Whew. That was back in, I think , 1984. I was just twelve then.

Deepest Condolences for the loss 😢

Thank you

I just have that you speak very well and explain it to the T and this, is coming from New Orleans Louisiana 💜💛💚🇺🇸

Did they get hand and foot prints of the baby? A small tuft of hair? Anything like that is a great comfort to the parent or parents left. My heart really went out to that father who just couldn’t bear to be parted from his son….even going to watch the cremation…..I fear that part will be his last memory for such a long time, but feel ALL babies hands and Feet should be printed onto some brightly coloured card….then the parents hopefully go home with these AND they have a healthy baby with them….sadly things can take a different turn, such as this case, and I can’t stress how much it means to a parent to have almost some proof that they did have a baby, and it was so beautiful that God took it back to be an Angel. I lost my own son quite suddenly, not as a baby, but aged just 39, when he had not long prior become a father of a little boy himself. My son had aggressive cancer and I blame smoking…it’s a killer disease, and I lost both my own parents to it, but their generation were not so aware. However in just seven weeks from diagnosis, my boy passed away in a hospice. The funeral director was very kind, and had some hair cut for me to keep, some I wear in a locket round my neck, the rest I will take with me when I go, so we are always connected. Myself, his wife and baby son also had a lock of our hair cut and put into his hand too. The other thing was an imprint of his finger print was taken, and his wife and I also have those to wear. There are some jewellery people who provide the kits which allow impressions to be taken by a nurse or the funeral director, and then they can run some silver into a cast and preserve the fingerprint permanently in a piece of jewellery. I know some people buy jewellery which will hold some of the cremated ashes, others hsvr sent the ashes away and had it made into a jewel…like a diamond because our ashes contained so much carbon with which to do this, but for me…..the foot and hand prints are precious, so I would urge hospitals and funeral homes to do this for each baby or child that they gave in their case. Godbless this little one, and his father. I truly believe they will be reunited one day when father has led a full and rich life here on earth. No one should think about trying to join loved ones sooner…there is no guarantee that this would happen unless planned by God, so no matter how sad..keep talking daily to your loved ones..kiss their picture if you have one. They are always close by, just like being in the room next door, so can hear you, Godbless everyone reading this who has lost a loved one, young or old. It’s always painful, but that pain will gradually ease and be less painful. 🙏🥰💐💕

This is pain.. Omg 😢r.i.p!! tq herosss

So Sorry for your lost

I worked in histology, and the hardest part was receiving babies that had passed. I had one father come down to hold the baby one last time. Super sad.

I'm sorry she died. What u did for her was beautiful

Hello, thank you, and thank you to the family of this dear baby for allowing this filming. I have worked in the uk funeral industry, but i just wondered why there was only one family member, i will presume the Father, at the Funeral service? Would the Mother, and other family members have gathered before the baby was collected from the hospital? Is it a cultural aspect, or just that individual families decision. Best wishes to you, for doing a very special service to families every day 🙏

My brother list a beautiful baby girl. It was like you could breathe but there was no air in the room. It was mind altering thinking about a one week old baby being taken.

As a father, it pains me to see such things have to happen. Only as parents will be able to know how much it takes to swallow the sadness.

So sorry for your loss 😉 peace 🕊️

I wouldn’t think the parents wouldn’t want to cremate their baby and have a burial site they can go too instead💔🙏🏾🕊

Oh that is so sad😢

My baby boy died and my daughter died age 30 no answer to any of them ?? The last gift of love ❤️ is rememberance sleep in forever peace bless you both Kerry and James xx ❤️❤️

Peace to you, in all you do... if I had my choice, and it were necessary, I'd prefer you to help my baby move onward and in my heart I know, upward❤

I feel so sad for the baby’s father (?). He was the only one there to say goodbye.

Sleep tight little one.

Sending all my love and prayers to the family LITTLE ONE RIP 🙏 💙 THANK YOU TO ALL THAT CARE FOR ALL OUR LOVE ONES AND CARE FOR ALL OF US! AND THANK YOU FOR SHARING PART OF HOW THINGS ARE DONE DEALING WITH DEATH DIEING ETC.❤

Putting something so small in the is the saddest 😢

Where do we put the ashes of the baby in the sea or niches

So sad

I've been to too many baby funerals.

❤️

Where was the mother??

😪

What did she mean by "sometimes it's a willing decision" in regards to the baby's death?!!

Is this a reupload?

At 6 months it is not a featus its a baby some babies survive at this time 😮

Where was mom? :(

I would want to hold my baby

what cause of death

Do people in China get buried in the ground for some reason I only hear of cremation

I know if I had kids, I couldn’t live with myself. I am glad that I can’t have babies.

تركبون جريمة في حق الطفل المتوفي، الأطفال ملائكه لا يجوز الحرقهم‼️😭 يقول رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم كسر عظم الميت ككسر عظم الحي بمعنى حرق الإنسان ميت نفس الأذى الذي يتعرض له الإنسان الحي لأن الإنسان له أربع ديار الأولى في بطن أمه والثانية في حياة الدنياء وهي دار ممر فانيه دار ابتلاءات بالخير والشر والثالثة القبر ونسميها حياة البرزخ والرابعة هي الجنة دار الأبدية دار الخلد الله يهدي قلوبهم للإسلام ويشرح صدورهم بالإيمان ويصبحون من أهل الجنة آمين 😠

I lost my baby before I knew I was pregnant. It was an ectopic and the doctor estimated I was around 3-4 weeks. I still remember the night I got pregnant, even the time because it was my one and only one night stand: 4/8/91 @ 2:08am. I lost it on 5/8/91@ 4 am(when I went into surgery). I'm sure the time is a little off but I remember most of the details because that was the one and only time I ever got pregnant and at 21 and unmarried and living on my on for the first time all I could think about was hoping something would happen and I wouldn't be able to have it. I got my wish and then some. A year later I met and married the world's greatest man. Our life was perfect except.... We couldn't have children. He had fertility issues and so did i . I'm so sorry for all of your losses. But I know they will be waiting on you.

What happened to the mom

No parents should bury their own child/children!!!😞 But it was a beautiful funeral!!!

It showed the father saying goodbye but where was the mother

I am sorry for the loss of your loved one, may you find comfort in God's word the Bible where it is promised that our greatest enemy DEATH will be brought to an end at Revelation 21:4. With Sympathy...

My condolences go out to the family and friends of this little one. Rest in peace.
