Science, law, and bioethics of posthumous parenthood across different countries. Phrases such as: - “I was born after my father died.” - “My mother gave birth to me after my husband was killed.” are no longer science fiction. And soon, another sentence may no longer sound extraordinary: - “I was born after my mother died.” The development of assisted reproductive technologies (ART), cryopreservation, and post-mortem sperm retrieval (PSR) has made conception after the death of one parent technically possible. But technical possibility is only the first layer of the issue. Beyond it lie legal, demographic, and ethical boundaries. This material is based on an analysis of current legislation in the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, EU countries, as well as ethical guidance from the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) and the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE).

Across the world, thousands of people live through grief, trauma, and life-changing loss every day - often in silence. While medical and psychological services play an essential role, many people describe a different kind of need in the early days of loss: a need for somewhere safe to speak, without pressure, diagnosis, or explanation. Neurodoula is a new digital support space created by Death Doula to meet that need.

Who are Death Doulas? A death doula is a person who stays with you when words and strength begin to run out. Our role is not about treatment - it is about warmth and steadiness: calm presence, clear orientation, gentle conversations, and respect for your choices. A death doula is there for any kind of loss and any form of grief - including grief for the life that can no longer be lived.

How to ease what parents feel in grief? When a child dies, even breathing can feel hard. This support is here for parents who are grieving and trying to get through the hardest days after their child’s death.

A holiday you face for the first time without the person you were used to celebrating it with is almost always a very particular experience. Even if the loss didn’t happen recently, these days can make their absence feel especially clear. And everyone lives through this in their own way. Sometimes everything around reminds you:

In today’s world, we believe that education protects people from loneliness, anxiety, and helplessness. And every person deserves a dignified farewell — with those they love, and with their own life.

Today’s society is calling for honesty, humanity, and knowledge in conversations about loss. In a world where more and more people are seeking dignified ways to speak about death, to live through grief, and to support those they care about, we offer practical tools for meaningful change.
