Over the years, I have been able to use social media to tell Thomas' story and to share our journey of becoming bereaved parents, as well as our relationship with grief. In honour of Thomas' tenth birthday, I wanted to pull this all together and create a single place for us to share it. So, here we are, our first official blog. The majority of the content which will be posted here, has been shared via our personal social media pages over the years. Liam's name appears as Lucy, as per the original posts. Please feel free to follow this page, share with anyone who would benefit and connect with us.
Thank you to everyone who has held us up over the years, this isn't a journey we would have been able to make without all the love and support we have been constantly shown by our amazing friends and family. Yes our son contracted a terminal illness, but we have been SO very lucky to have had him in our lives for the past 10 years (and 9 months), as well as been surrounded by the most incredible people and charitable support.
I will be running the London Marathon in April this year, dressed as a daffodil, to raise money for Meningitis Now. I have linked my fundraising page to this site, as well as my Strava Profile, so please do follow the links and support me through my training. Every penny really does make a big difference, so please give what you can to help support others who have been impacted by this terrible illness.
