Our Boy Brooklyn

By Amie Lichi

I'm fundraising for Bear Cottage!

Our boy Brooklyn passed away on the 25th July 2023. He was surrounded by love, in a cuddle with his mum and dad, being supported and cared for by the wonderful team at bear cottage. 

Bear cottage provided the most comfortable, kind, caring, supporting environment for us to say goodbye to our boy. 

Brooklyn was as comfortable as possible in his last week of life, all thanks to the amazing doctors and nurses at bear cottage. The staff and volunteers fed us, looked after all of brookies needs, cried with us, listened to us, brought us tea, made us laugh, ensured Brooklyn was not distressed, answered all of our questions and were genuinely just amazing people. We are so thankful that a place like bear cottage exists for families like ours.


Thank you for supporting their work. More than half of the funding for bear cottage comes from donations, so your generosity in donating to this cause means the world to us. 


Love, Amie and Brian

In honour of our best friend on his heavenly birthday. We will love and miss you always Brookie Boy 😘😘😘 I don’t think it was a coincidence that Brookie was born during super hero week 🦸🏻‍♂️ Thank you to Bear Cottage for taking such great care of the Lichi’s and surrounding them in love.
