Thousands Help To Reunite Mum With Lost Photo of Her Stillborn Baby

A mother has been reunited with the photograph of her stillborn baby less than 24 hours after it was lost. Thanks to a kind-hearted mother who posted it online.

Monica Taylor, from Melbourne, said she found the photo at Royal Melbourne Show bag area of the grounds on Saturday night and decided to post it online, hoping the photo would be returned to its owner.

“There are no identifying notes on the back and I didn’t witness who it fell from, but as an angel mum to a stillborn son myself, I instantly knew by seeing it, what it was, and if this where mine (quiet possibly the only photograph she had) I would be absolutely devastated!” Ms Taylor wrote on her original Facebook post.

Thankfully, less than 24 hours later, and with the help of thousands of people who shared the photo online, Ms Taylor said that the photo was successfully returned to the mother, who preferred to remain anonymous. Celebrity blogger Constance Hall also joined the campaign, sharing the image on her page to her following of almost one million fans.

In an updated post to Facebook, Ms Taylor announced the good news, saying the crumpled image was the only photograph the mother had of her baby girl.

The post was shared almost 7000 times.

One Facebook user even offered to retouch the photograph to improve the condition, but the mother declined the gesture.
