I felt so raw and alone but The Ectopic Pregnancy Trust were there for us and with their support and information which has hugely helped in our grieving process. I found gaming was the distraction and the escape I needed in those dark days so to be able to do what I love whilst raising funds and awareness for the charity is great.- Emma
