Thanking you all.


Thank you everyone for you love and support, it gives us great comfort to read all your messages. The last few days have been tense, emotional, exhausting, loving, hating, anxious, relaxed and completely stressed all rolled into one. The monsoon of Delhi ended up lending a hand, completely flooding the streets, forcing us to stop, take a breath, relax, read and sleep.

After two days filled with paperwork and logistics, we are finally on the home straight. The boys will be cremated in Delhi tomorrow. Next week we will take the ashes back to our hometown of Melbourne where a memorial service will be conducted with family and friends.

I just want to thank the staff at the New Born Centre (where Benjamin stayed for seven weeks) and Dr Shivani, the staff at SCI have been absolutely wonderful looking after us and the boys.

Thank you all out there too.

    Dear Sam and Phil,
    I'm here from LFCA to say how sorry I am at the loss of first one and now two little boys. My heart is heavy for you. Please know what great dads you are and that your sons were so blessed to have you watching over them. I've read the whole blog now and wish I could read the whole story from the beginning. It sounds pretty miraculous and so heartfelt. Maybe when you are stronger you'll finish the whole story. Sending love and hugs to you ((()))
