Hello Son

Dear Aidan,
I have not written to you in such a long time. I still think of you daily and I mention you to people every chance I get. I have a lovely pencil drawing of you by Heather Spears, which is framed and in my private space. I have not shown any one else yet.

Just think if you had survived your birth you would have been a year and a half old, but really only a year because you were due roughly today in 2005. So hard to believe that I held you dead in my arms, that you never took a breath, never got a chance to be with us and share with us.

So much has happened. I have some wonderful news to share with you, you are going to be a big brother, I am pregnant for the second time with a little girl. We have decided to call her Kirsten Eileen. Please if you are looking out for me could you extend your care to your little sister so she can join us in August. We so much want her with us, as we so much wanted you with us, that was not to be.
Much love kisses and hugs
from your Mum
