A special baby left today. A baby of my friend no less, someone I grew up with, who I have known since I was tiny. How can this happen to two of us in the same year? It's not right, it's not fair. I want to take their pain away but I can't and I want to say it gets easier, which in some ways it does but also doesn't. The pain never goes away, you just learn how to ignore it for a while.
The friend in question is now a trustee of 4Ellie-phant. I hope it gives her the same peace it gives to me. We have one hospital on board, a meeting tomorrow and a meeting in November, both for local places (well, one isn't so local but Cleveland is still North-east). The hospital we are supplying is in London so off I go to London in January! I'm also trying to cram in the fundraisers to build up our bank account but today, I might take it easy. Feeling sad.
Fly high, little baby, and say hi to Ellie x
