Three-plus years to get to today.

The beginning of the Sussex Inquiry. All I’ve ever wanted from this is accountability. For those who provided negligent care, and those higher up who allowed it, covered it up or failed to act, to face some form of repercussions.

I hope this review can finally provide that. I’ve done everything I can to fight in honour of my daughter, and I have given it everything I had. I’m really bloody proud of all I’ve overcome and the person she has helped me become. Someone who is no longer afraid to speak up, have their voice heard and advocate not only for herself but others too.

Speaking to Sky News after today’s meeting is something that has almost become second nature to me now. After so many years of interviews, cameras and telling our story, I think
I’ve become somewhat dissociated from it all.

I constantly say I’ve done enough, that I’m exhausted from having to relive the worst days of my life over and over again. But when presented with the opportunity to say my daughter’s name, it’s something I can never turn down.

Because one day, there will be no more media outlets interested in our story. No one asking questions. No one asking about my daughter. And when that day comes, I know I’ll miss these opportunities to talk about her.

But I’m tired now. I’m ready for Donna and her team to take over the heavy load. Ready to close this chapter of fighting and to have the chance to focus on the happiness she brought us. Because of the negligence, the legal case and the campaigning that can be lost. We may have only had nine months with her, but my gosh, those were some of the happiest of my life.

Time to focus not on what was taken from us, but on everything she gave us. 💛

I will always find a reason to say your name…

In the conversations where I mention you.In the little things I still save for you.In the moments where I catch myself wondering who you would be now.

I know the world has carried on. I know people who never met you can’t possibly understand the space you take up in my heart.

But you were here.

You are loved. You were wanted. You are my daughter. And I will always find ways to make sure you remain part of the life you should have been living.

And if you’re a loss mum too, I hope you know this: you never have to stop talking about your baby just because the world stopped asking.

I didn’t choose the experiences that made me this mum…

I wouldn’t choose them again. I wouldn’t wish them on anyone.

But somewhere along the way, they changed the way I see motherhood.

I notice more. I slow down more. I soak in the cuddles, the silly moments and the completely ordinary days.

I take the photos. I celebrate the little things because I know how fragile life can be.

Because I know now just how quickly life can change.

Grief gave me a perspective I never wanted, but it also made me realise just how much beauty there is in the everyday parts of being a mum.

And when I look at the mum I am today, I see a woman who loves a little louder, holds on a little tighter and appreciates a little deeper.

I’m proud of her.

And I think Esme would be too. 🤍

What’s one thing you love about the mum you’ve become? I’d love to hear yours in the comments.

Things people say after baby loss that they probably don’t realise can stay with you forever.

When you lose a baby, you quickly realise that people often don’t know what to say. And I understand that. Most people have never had to navigate a conversation with someone whose baby has died. They’re uncomfortable, they panic, they want to make it better.

But sometimes, the things said with the best intentions can become the words we remember forever.

There are comments I was told after losing Esme that I know people probably didn’t mean to hurt me with. But I still remember them.

Because when you’re grieving your baby, you don’t need the right words. You don’t need an explanation. You don’t need someone to try and make it better.

You just need someone to acknowledge that your baby existed, that they mattered, and that this is fu***ng heartbreaking.
