Mumsnet Talk

I have debated all day over whether to post this or not, My darling niece would have been 12 today, my heart just breaks for my sister and her husband and my other niece.
Megan was diagnosed with spina bifida and hydrocauphilis (sp?) 3 weeks before she was born, she died at birth.
I feel guilty at times because I have gone on to have 3 healthy daughters, one of which was born 7 months after she died. It hit me hard the other day that I also feel sorry for my DD1 and DD2 who missed out on a cousin and friend to play with.

So Happy 12th Birthday Megan, have a wonderful day and you are never far from our thoughts

I think it is very important to remember. Lovely post. Well done.

Thank you

So generous of you to feel your good luck, and to make an effort which is only going to make you sad. You chose to share your sister and her family's sadness on the worst day, when that sadness has probably passed from everyone else's minds. So generous.
