Bon, I think I’ve told you before that I am the eldest, but not the firstborn of my parents. It was totally normal for me growing up knowing that I had a brother who died the day he was born. What you and Dave are doing is a gift for Posey and Oscar, as well as a remembrance for Finn. Your pain will scar over, but your son will not diminish.

Ah, Bon. You move me. And at the end a tear drops for your sweet boy, and the way you let him not be forgotten. Happy New year…

Thanks for letting me visit from time to time.

Aye,

As a new reader, I was not aware of Finn. Your words are so beautiful, even in your comment…

“and yet, like any scar, i suppose this loss simply grows less pink, less obvious, less visible. but every now and then it does me good to point to it, to say, this happened. he was here.

i appreciate all of you receiving, honouring, holding the space of him with me.”

Allow me to join in “holding the space” for Finn. I’m sorry for your loss.

Thank you so much. Beautiful, heart wrenching, and an honor to read.

I will always hold space for Finn. To find out Dave’s mom made the moose seems all the more fitting. From one mother to another.
