In my work as a bereavement support nurse, I was honored to spend time with families whose child was born still, or died shortly after birth. Many of these families sought comfort in music. However, there were few songs that addressed a loss of a child you have never held alive, or perhaps will never touch at all.
With my friends, I wrote a song using the words, thoughts and ideas expressed to me by these families. In creating this song we hope to give some comfort or validation to those who have loved and lost a baby in this way.

  • This is the hardest thing you will ever do, but you can do it. You will for your 3 year old, and for his parents. Please reach out and find support. No one needs to do this alone.

  • I am so sorry for your loss. You can find supportive and informative resources at sidscenter. org ( look for the bereavement tab)

  • ''As I gaze at these stars in the cold black sky.

    You could be just a speck to the universal eye.

    But if you look into my heart, you're as big as the sun.

    How can we have finished when we've only just begun.''

    -I can really relate to this, every night I look out the window at the stars, choose the brightest one and think it's my baby alex. :(
