Monday was a difficult yet special day for the family. Thank you to everyone who came to farewell Teddy or was there with us in spirit. We all did manage to smile amidst the tears, as we dreamed of the hope to come. Thank you everyone who donated to Reah or to New Born care.
We managed to hold things together for the farewell but were hit pretty hard when we went home. The emptiness and pain sneaks up on us. We definitely need some time to heal. It is so strange thinking that Lil should still be pregnant and that Edward shouldn't have been born until October. Mikey's birthday, 18th October, will always be memorable because that was Teddy's due date.
To help with the healing process we are being sent on a holiday for two weeks and then will be back to work out what is next. We definitely need prayers for wisdom as to how to proceed with our journey next year.
Thank you all again for love, prayers, wisdom, hugs, positive vibes, soft words, flowers, gifts and support.
The slideshow has been posted on the farewell page.
Mikey has posted his eulogy and message on a page for those who have asked for it.
With love and prayers,
Mikey, Lil and Raphael
Seeya Teddy, we really miss you.
