\u2018Feelie hearts\u2019 are small stuffed hearts perfect for tucking into a pocket or purse. They bring comfort and are a tangible reminder to hold our heart tenderly.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Feelie Hearts were first made by volunteers at an organization that supports children whose lives have been touched by loss. The little soft hearts were a simple way to remind children that they are loved, and that they can love.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Hospice Yukon has a long tradition of making and giving \u2018Feelie Hearts\u2019 and have found what a simple comfort they bring. We give out hundreds of hearts each year that are hand-sewn by volunteers using soft, recycled fabrics. No two are exactly alike and each has a life of its own.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Sometimes Feelie Hearts get passed on. Someone who has been grieving may give theirs to a friend going through hard times. When we have the freedom to grieve, loss often turns naturally into compassion.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Sewing a Feelie Heart can be healing in and of itself. When a community of people are gathered in common grief, sitting together and sewing hearts can be a source of comfort.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
