A heartbroken couple who used bags of frozen peas to create a makeshift cold cuddle cot after their baby boy died have been described as "remarkable."
Alice and Sam Taylor’s 12-day-old son Thomas suffered a cardiac arrest following a viral infection and died in an ambulance as he was rushed to hospital. The couple wanted to take him home one last time before his funeral but there were no special cold cuddle cots available, prompting staff at the hospital’s bereavement suite to suggest using frozen peas in his Moses basket.
Alice, 27, said she was "willing Sam to hurry up" when he went into Asda to get five bags of frozen peas while she sat "cuddling" her son in the car park.
