20 Milly Bags were delivered to Ward 86 this morning. I wish there was no need for our bags, but whilst we can’t change the fact that children are diagnosed with cancer every day, we can let families know that we care and try and make a small difference in Milly’s name.

Every day I prayed with all of my being to let the treatment work, to give us a miracle and let Milly have a future. For the whole 14 months I wished it was me, I wished that I could take away her pain and her fear and let her live the life she had before diagnosis.

Today it’s 8 years that I have survived without Milly.... 8 years is a lifetime to be without one of your children, and yet it’s no time at all.... The pain...the loss...her absence from every part of my life is still felt so intensely...my heart breaks every single day 🎗💔

Yesterday we held our SOULS support group, it was a lovely morning, beginning with coffee, fresh pastries, then some great pumpkin carving resulting in very unique fabulous designs. Groups are every month, for bereaved parents, grandparents and siblings at no cost for attending.

It’s my daughters 20th birthday today, her 9th birthday in heaven. I miss her so much and I count every day without her, life with a child in heaven is so tough, in fact it’s indescribable. Today hurts 💔

We have been in Manchester today to deliver to John Atkinson. We are so proud to have provided a total of 900 Milly Bags, since we began supporting the ward in March 2016. Milly Bags are bags that no parent ever wants to receive but when they do, they are always extremely grateful.
