A journey through my grief of losing my child. The days will always be brighter because he existed. The nights will always be darker because he's gone.

I shared William’s story today with 160 health visitors. It’s so important that they’re aware of #sepsis and can raise the alarm if they suspect it, but also to inform families about it too. 💙

@LozzaFox Claire was an inspiring nurse for whom I’ve done many talks. She’s left such a wonderful legacy. Totally senseless act of evil 😞

10 yrs ago There is nothing heavier in this world than carrying your child’s coffin. It was 30 inches long. I was the last person to see William. I had to close the lid. There is nothing that can prepare you for that Hug your children a little closer today. Life is precious 💔

Whistle stop visit to London. Lovely to catch up with likeminded friends who do so much to champion our cause. It can often be a hard journey to navigate and disheartening at times but we must keep on keeping on. There is still so much more to be done #sepsis
