FOR 18 precious days after her newborn baby son passed away, Laura Elliot cradled him and cuddle his tiny body.
Little Cowen died at just 17 days old, after contracting meningitis.
But, thanks to a “cuddle cot”, provided by a funeral home, Laura and her family were able to spend time bonding with him before laying him to rest.
Cowen was kept in a Moses basket, which has a special cooling pad inside.
It meant his little body could be kept cool, allowing his parents to visit every day for more than two weeks before his funeral in November.
Mum Laura was able to pick him up, cuddle and kiss him and spent as long as she wanted with him each day.
“We first heard about the cuddle cot when we started to talk about laying Cowen to rest,” she said.
