Byrd Regional Hospital marked a meaningful moment Monday as the facility received a donation of a Heidi Saint James cuddle cot, a specialized cooling device that allows families who experience the loss of an infant to spend additional time holding, bonding with, and saying goodbye to their child.

The donation, made possible by Jamie and her team, provides families with comfort and dignity during one of life’s most difficult experiences. Byrd Regional Hospital said the cuddle cot gives grieving families the opportunity to create meaningful memories at their own pace.

“Jamie’s passion and compassion for supporting families is truly inspiring,” hospital representatives said. “Through her efforts, she continues to make a lasting impact on the lives of those who need it most.”

Hospital staff expressed gratitude for the donation and said events like these strengthen the continuum of care within the community.
