On this day 15 years ago, I walked up the stairs of Bear Cottage with my Mum and my boy. Archie wasn't even close to being as unwell as he often was. But, despite that, something in me knew, this time when we left Bear Cottage, it would be without my boy in my arms.

Today starts a two and a half week emotional roller coaster to the day that Archie goes to the rainbow, followed by another two and a half week roller coaster to his birthday.

I can feel it in my body. My emotions are hightened. I'm in fight or flight mode. I am right back in that moment 15 years ago as well as living in this moment with the anticipation anxiety of the next 5 weeks.

The anticipation of his anniversary and birthday is always the worst. It is usually much worse than the actually days themselves. It is draining. Draining on all aspects of the body and soul. And this year as we approach Archies 16th Birthday and, what should be him stepping into year 10 at school, I am even more anxious of how this rollercoaster is going to pan out.

So today, I am taking a much needed rest day.

✨️Bed ✅️
✨️Bacio Bear ✅️ (Bacio Bear is a teddy filled with Archie's ashes. I have slept with him every night for the last 15 years and he travels with us whenever we are away from home. When I haven't been able to take him overseas, he gets Bear-sat 🥰)
✨️Weighted blanket ✅️
✨️Aussie Open ✅️ (Arch and I spent lots of time watching tennis together. Up until that very last day. It is a hug for my soul)
✨️Mama Odie 🐈‍⬛✅️
✨️Sunflower lego✅️ Thankyou Aries Mum 🫶🏽 This is just what I need today 😘

Usually I would be stressing about how much work I need to do and what housework needs to be caught up on. But, right now, I am not even feeling an ounce of guilt. I'm so tired. This is just what is needed.

Now, if can win tonight, that would add a nice little bit of sparkle to tomorrow when this Mumma needs to step up, run a business and adult again ❤️🤍

Here's to the next 5 weeks ✌🏽🎢🐞🌈🌻🧡

You will live forever in the hearts and voices of all who love you 🩷☂️☀️

All of the frames that I put together are special and made with so much love. There is time and attention poured into every little wrinkle. But putting this frame together hit a little different.

This little lady spent only a short time here in body with her doting parents. They made beautiful memories with her, even if just in a short amount of time. These little fingers and toes are joined by her hair and a special little "T" charm, all kept together forever to be seen each day. A little quote from a song that holds so much meaning completes this pretty pink treasure ✨️

This is my first completed bereavement frame. It holds a special place in my heart, for more reasons than the evident one. Thankyou to Traeleighs family for allowing me to share 🩷 Love to you, and all the families that live without a piece of their heart each day 🌈

"When the sun shines, we'll shine together"

✨️I don't charge for my bereavement frames, they are funded by donations. Thankyou to the family that made this happen for this beautiful girls family ###

I am so proud to have been part of creating this much needed and amazing tool. The specialists that have been at the forefront of this are absolutely wonderful, not just in their fields, but as humans. The paediatric palliative care world is in safe and caring hands 🫶🏽

For me palliative care was an extremely scary thought. Of course, that was only after googling it and finding out what it actually was. It felt that if I accepted it, I was accepting what the doctors said and giving in to the fact that he was going to die. Little did I know that it would change our lives for the better. I wasn't accepting his death or giving up on him. I was accepting life, just in a different way to what we deamed as "normal".

By stepping into Bear Cottage when Archie was one month old, we gave him life and they gave us life. We lived beautiful moments with our boy as a family, made lifetime memories and had a community welcome us in and wrap their arms around us. Palliative care was not death, it was life.

Having a timely referral is so important. This tool will change lives. In the moment when you think your life is all but over, it is going to give families the time they need to gather the support they need, create beautiful memories and build a community around them as they move through the lifelong winding road ahead 🌈🐞🧡

Today, this International Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day, we remember all the little ones that we hold in our hearts, but not in our arms 🌈

It is estimated that 1 in 4 pregnancies end in miscarriage. In Australia, more than 2,200 babies are stillborn each year, and 600 more families will be left devastated by the death of a baby who has lived for not even a month.

For bereaved parents this month can bring many mixed emotions. It is important to spread awareness and open up conversations around pregnancy and infant loss, but in some moments it can also be very overwhelming. We often need to take a step back and gather ourselves before we can return to the world of social media. But, I guess that is a balance that we live with most days.

With the above said, while today can bring tears, I think of what our kiddies must be watching unfold, and it makes me so happy. I think of the excitement and anticipation that this day may bring for them. Do they wait to see their families and friends light their special candles calling out things like "mine smells like bubblegum!" or "Mummy got me a new one this year!". I like to imagine all their gorgeous little faces smiling with joy as they watch the light of the candles dance just for them. What a beautiful image it is 🥹

Today I will be lighting a candle for my Archie-David Jude, aswell as his little friends that have joined him at the rainbow 🐞 The little ones that were held in arms for a moment, and the little ones that only knew the warmth of their Mummies womb. All of them loved so much and forever alive in our hearts and our stories ✨️

What is the name of your little one who will be watching and waiting to see their special light dancing in your home tonight?🌈🐞🌻

If you are pregnant or have had a bub since experiencing your loss - YOU ARE WELCOME TO ATTEND, and you are more than welcome to bring your baby along ! Your joy does not mean your grief isn't valid 💚

Your baby, however old, will always be your baby 🧡

Facilitated by me, Nadine, from 'There Will Be Rainbows'. I lost my son Archie when he was 11 and a half months old 🐞 The loss of my son made me want to use my experiences as a catalyst for change, and to provide assistance to those in our community.

I welcome you to join me in guided conversation and the ongoing support of a beautifully embracing community.
All circle members are also invited to join our private whatsapp group for continued check-ins, advice, and support 🫶🏽

This week is National Palliative Care week 🧡

It is important that people know about palliative care and all the beautiful things that it can bring to families. Our family was lucky enough to have the most beautiful support through the beautiful Bear Cottage 🐞🌈🐻

On the 17th of March, Archie's one month birthday, we left the hospital and stepped into Bear Cottage for the first time. We had many stays at Bear Cottage. We spent our days surrounded by people in our world. We were all the same there. The outside world was a world that I didn't feel comfortable in anymore. Bear Cottage felt like home. I was able to spend time with my eldest son, and we were able to be a family and do normal family things. He absolutely loved it! The staff and vollies were amazing and became like family. I was so very fortunate to be part of such a beautiful place, even if it was for the most horrific of reasons.

Then, the time we had been dreading came. We were at Bear Cottage, surrounded people who knew my boy and our family. We were safe, we were loved, and we were in a place that was home to us. My eldest son was happy and playing, and it was just right for him. He was able to come in and spend time with his little brother if he wanted and then leave and go back to his fun loving three year old life scootering the grounds and playing all through the Bear Cottage building. If there was a perfect way to be at a time when your child had just passed, then this would be it.

Bear Cottage made it possible for us to stay together as a family while Archie got the care he needed, and I got the support I needed. My eldest son, Will and Archie's biggest cousin, Carter, absolutely loved going there! It was never bleak and sad, but magical and full of joy ✨

Paediatric Palliative care and childrens hospices are so important. Every family should have access to the amazing care myself, and my family has been fortunate enough to have.

Thankyou, and . I don't think words could ever express all the ways that you make our lives better 🌈🐞🌻
