CLEMMONS, N.C. — A mother whose viral post about a missing bracelet containing her baby's ashes is feeling some relief.

Morgan Clodfelter found the bracelet that contains her baby's ashes in her car on Monday after going through one more final check.

Clodfelter said she lost the bracelet a week ago while running errands in the Triad. Her Facebook post listing the places she went -- Chick-fil-A, Target and Starbucks -- was shared more than 900 times.

She tells WXII she and her husband took the whole car apart trying to find it. The next time she searched, she found it.

"I took apart the second car seat and it was laying there just as if it had been laying there the first time, we took it apart," Clodfelter said.

Clodfelter told WFMY her baby, Zachary, died after a premature birth.

"I never imagined having to carry my baby out of the hospital in a box, to the funeral home - to be cremated," she said.

Clodfelter said she's in the process of having the bracelet made into a ring instead.
