A lady named Julie has posted about this photo. Her comment is recorded below.
Omg I just came across this picture and thought you may be interested to know the story behind it.
You see I'm the owner of the lock, I'm the mummy of Benji......it was placed on the bridge on 26th Oct 2010, just a few days prior to you capturing this photo.
After trying to conceive for countless years and suffering 9 previous miscarriages Benji was conceived via a frozen IVF cycle but lost his battle for life on Tuesday 13th April 2010 at 8:35am, when our ultrasound tech saw his heart flicker and stop just 7 short wks into the pregnancy, we where never blessed to see or hear his heartbeat ourselves. Because of testing that was done after my miscarriage it was discovered Benji was in fact a boy and his life was cut short because of some major mistakes in my pregnancy care by some medical professionals. Since losing him he has had a further 2 siblings join him. We are still currently trying to conceive our first living child 7yrs on from originally starting our journey to have a family.
I can not tell you how much discovering your photo means to me. To know that someone, other then ourselves, took the time to stop, capture and think of Benji if only just for a second. When you loss a baby all you want is your baby back and because that obviously can't happen you move on to wanting to know that others know, acknowledge and remember them. Thank you so much for doing just that.
From one very grateful Angel Mummy, Julie
