There was much (MUCH!) Geomag play. Am seriously considering stocking these now they’ve relaunched. Amelie made me a present after a rather lovely nature walk with Daddy. Fran and I had been down to Addenbrookes for the day, visiting an incarcerated friend family while we were there. Fran got signed off from one surgeon too, […]
Co-dependance Day
Today is mine and Max’s anniversary; we’ve been married 12 years. Twelve years ago today, about now, we were enjoying our reception, in the garden of my parents house, thinking wed done an okay job of what we hoped would be the biggest event of our life, the birth of our first child and seeing […]
Days that never came
Dear Freddie, 3 months ago today, also on a Friday, that laughably named ‘Good Friday’ you were born. You should be 3 months old. I think, now, that I never expected you. I was expecting, but I never believed you would come. And you never did. I’m never going to wonder whether to send you […]
Sometimes…
Some days it is okay. Other days it is mostly okay, with a few added tears and wobbly moments. And some days it is just not okay at all. Yesterday we received a letter from the Child Death Overview Panel, letting us know that our son’s death (condolences by the way) would be anonymously discussed […]
Trying not to have a virtual life.
When Freddie died, he was in my arms, the only time I got to hold him like that with no wires attached. We were tucked up in a bed, with the sun pouring in through the window, peacefully on our own, just the three of us. We didn’t have long, he lasted very little time […]
All the other things we've been doing.
I’m so far behind on the day to day life around here that I don’t think I can remember. Maddy went on her PGL holiday and loved it. I wasn’t really worried about her going, though it didn’t feel very long after all our traumas. She was very pleased to be going and came home […]

Reclaiming the Rainbow
It’s time to replace the egg in the basket. I don’t know whether I’ll need it again. Perhaps not. Perhaps. Maybe. If nature thinks so. If I can make myself think so. Possibly if I can work out how to outwit what appears to be a slightly temperamental thyroid. Lots of things. Never thought I […]
The tiring and the downright bad.
The worst thing about this is how it turns you into a downright bitch. Oh, i know it. I don’t know if there is any way round the raging bitterness that leaks out into the most ordinary of moments. The happy moments. Unexpected announcements. Hate them. Photo contests. Hate them. Talking about how long it […]
Answers that make more questions
I’m not doing so well. I wish i was the kind of person who could switch off, accept things as they are, not question, not query, not wonder. I suppose i’ve headed on past shock and denial stages of grief (though shock seems particularly capable of re-emerging, i spent most of the last two days […]
