    What a gorgeous little boy, Sally! You must be over the moon. I am over the moon for you. I first came across your story when it was published in the Herald Sun, shortly after we lost our little Tilly. I have been thinking about you lots since and was so delighted to see those magic pictures of you and your little man. It made my day to hear your wonderful news. Congratulations. I'm sure Hope is a very proud big sister.
    All my very best to you, Simon and Angus.

    finally! im crying for you and your beautiful family. it is a mixture of tears of joy and sadness and a hope (!) for my own future as well. i lost my beautiful babies at 5 months of pregnancy just under three months ago. when i was newly pregnant, i stumbled across your blog and it was more than i could take at the time. i was horrified at what you had been through and could not continue to read. now, here i sit, sharing somewhat the same reality although i did not have the false sense of security of carrying them to the end, as you did with Hope. that just makes things so much crueler. i am proud to come here today and wish you the best of everything as your family moves forward. i wish we didn't share this heartache. but i know that little Angus will help mend just a little corner of your broken heart.
