I visit the Names in the Sand website every day or 2 and as I was reading her blog I was HORRIFIED to read that some lady had e mailed saying her children were born 'not breathing' so the wonderful lady Carly went to the beach, wrote the children's names in the sand and took stunning pics only to be alerted later that this woman had lied! and was caught out bragging about it on another parenting forum!! WTF!!! Who would do that..It makes me sick!
:
That is just SICK, Horrible and Disgusting!!:(
I just don't see why this is something to brag about. What a disgusting woman.
ETA: I've just gone and read her blog myself and I now have tears in my eyes...and I'm not even a baby lost mama myself. I found out about this site just recently when one of my best friends lost her baby at 8 days old. I thought it was the most beautiful gesture and I can't believe someone took advantage of Carly like that. It's one of the most disgusting examples of thievery I've ever heard of. What a lovely woman she is to decide to continue to take every email at face value. I would have felt so betrayed.
That's so disrespectful, not only to her, but to everyone who has actually lost a bubba.
How on earth did those on the pther parenting site react? Like us I suppose?
I got the impression it was somebody else from the site that dobbed this woman in. She has since been banned and had her bragging post removed.
How disgraceful :(.
I hope that woman is ashamed of herself, although reading the comments she made on the parenting site, I very much doubt it.
Disgusting!
It is a sad fact of life that there are stupid, sick people out there that do these things and get enjoyment out of it.
I really hope this woman never has to endure the pain & heartbreak of a loss... if she does, she will have very limited places in which she will be able to get online support after this charming little stunt.
i dont even understand that like why??? its very disturbing behavior if u ask me.
Yeh that is just beyond my understanding as well.. I don't get why anyone would do something like that...:
i don't see whats to brag about or even why do it it beyond me... if it was just cause she like the look of it written in the sand she should have gone and did it her self. that's just sooo wrong.:
To brag about it that's not normal how old is this person one has to wonder?? :rolleyes:
People will do the most hurtfull and insane things for attention. I cant comprehend it personally :(
How awful :(
Imagine using someone who is doing such a lovely thing. I
Just disrespectful.
exactly!:
Unfortunately there are people who just need the attention. We have had our fair share here on BB also. It sickens me that people are so unconscious that they will abuse the trust and kindness of good people.
However, let's focus on how many amazing people there are who will do beautiful kind things (like carly from Names in the sand) just because they have compassion for others... :hug:
I read that the woman wanted some nice pics for her house and that's why she lied. That is sick. Urgh... it bugs me so much.
I requested for Noah's name to be written in the sand today... it will be such an honour to have that done for him... and such a disgrace that someone can take advantage of Carly's love and good nature like the woman who lied about her children. I wonder how her poor children would feel if and when they find out their mum told someone they had died, just to get their names written in the sand?
What a horrible woman. I would never wish that grief on anyone. Its not right. At all.
That said, I thank you for leading me to that website, and I have now sent a request for a tribute to be made to my niece for my Sister and BIL. Their daughter is a SIDS Angel. I feel it is important for the whole family to share in the remembrance of their baby. It should never be left just to them to speak her name.
I know somebody who has lied about a miscarriage and I think it is the lowest of the low.
I can't even bring myself to write the words that explains how I feel right now. :(
I really hope she never has to suffer the great pain a loss of a child brings.
I am so disgusted right now... I just... can't comprehend the actions of someone like that... not only to do it, but to brag about it.... just... horrendous. :(
That blog is BEAUTIFUL. The photos & the love & thought behind them are amazing.
That is very disturbing and very very strange. I cannot and don't want to even begin to imagine the pain of losing a child, to lie about this experience is just beyond understnading!
i feel sick...
just to change the perspective - by someone's incredibly thoughtless actions, a whole lot of other people have had the opportunity to experience the beautiful website that Carly has created, and appreciate it as it is intended.
[QUOTE=blessedatlast;1672537]I visit the Names in the Sand website
Hi, I just found this thread and am speachless that someone would do something like that, but there are some thoughtless and odd people out there.
However, I was wondering if you could please advise me of the website as it sounds like something beautiful and I would like to give the site to a freind who has had two babies die and my mum for my sister who died in birth.
Thanking You xoxo
I can`t believe someone could be so heartless & cruel ,as to carry out a sick act like this.
We lost our 8 year old Son Brendan going through Bone marrow transplant,in Sept,2004so a friend on BB, gave us the Wriiting in The Sands website,Carly wrote our Son`s name for us for his 4th anniversay last year,& to top it off Carly does her writtings for free,how dare this person waste her precious time as well.
If it isn`t hard enough living every day without our beautiful bubs/children that we have lost. This has made me feel sick to my stomach,& I hope Karma pays out on this awful person in a big way. I?m so mad & upset. If you have never lost a child you never really know what it`s like to walk in our shoes!!! :crying: Sorry ladies I?m having a very sad day today......thinking of my little mate.
If she ever does she's in for a huge shock. How disgusting.:
Wow... that's all I can say, wow...
I can't believe people actually do that. Disrespectful...Makes you sick though.
Just a positive to add to this post.
Thankfully the beautiful owner of this site, Carly, is still trusting that there are honest people out there and she did this for my family for our precious little angel Noah;
Noah's name in the sand
It is so beautiful and has touched mine and my families hearts in a way that I can't begin to explain... to know someone out there would do this for us is so beautiful.
Low as low can go...how sad.
Lisa that is absolutely beautiful.
Lisa that is beautiful - I loved the poem too. I'd love to get one for my sister for her angel baby, I'll have to arrange that for sure now.
Thanks... we think it is so beautiful.
The poem is actually a song. It is what we played at Noah's funeral. It is like it was written for us and felt so personal.
Ari, I asked Carly to do one for my niece, whom was lost to sids - and she was happy to oblige. I think it is a beautiful gift and we are working on getting a large print for my sister and BIL.:
