Thank you for your good wishes everybody.

Every day is hard when you have lost your child, when someone very precious came into your life only to be snatched away. But the anniverary of their death is the most difficult day of all. I've tried looking at Guy's few things - his name tags, his tiny hats, the prayer I wrote for his funeral - but it is all too much.

I was watching ER the other night, and should have turned it off because the story was about a doctor flashing back to losing her young son. She said one of the reasons she found it hard to talk about her loss was because "there is no word for me. When you lose your parents, you're an orphan. When you lose your husband, you're a widow. But when you lose your baby there is no word. No word."

It's true, of course. But you are always, always that child's mother, and they will always be in your heart and part of you, whether there is a word for you or not.

How I miss him.

Gilly
