Teddy & Me

Feathering The Empty Nest was created in January 2017 after Elle Wright lost her son, Teddy, in May 2016 at just three days old.  Born out of a passion for making a house a home the blog was a space to share how that helped her heal, and write about her experience of losing Teddy.  After winning Tommy’s “Mums Voice Award” in 2018, Elle went on to write; Ask Me His Name (published in 2018) and A Bump In The Road (2021). Both raising funds for Tommy’s, her aim has always been to unite bereaved parents and write truthfully about the road navigated after losing a child.
