Today would have been my Jack's 30th birthday...(Trigger Babyloss)

He lived for two hours 30 years ago.. He was born at 26 weeks and had a brain haemorrhage.. We had to make the decision to switch his life support off... Stay Another Day by E17 was no 1...Oh the irony.
Today we went to his grave and decorated it. He was remembered in the prayers at chapel tonight. We have just come home and lit his candles... 💙 💙
We normally have a sign each year, either ladybirds, Robins, or we hear his song.. Today the Pastor was talking about angels so that was our sign... Wilf gave me a beautiful angel with Jack's name on and I bought the angel sign...

Happy Birthday, Jack. You're so loved. ❤️

I have a little one who was born and died too soon, too. At hard times, I always see signs from them. Thinking of you today, OP. You aren't alone.

Elderflower14 · 24/12/2024 20:43

I've just caught up with your lovely messages... Thankyou ♥️
