Caroline is Talina's aunty, my sister. She came to see Talina only a couple of Hours after her birth .She practically spent the 2 days with us in our home, loving every minute.
Dear Friends,
When I was first told Talina was sick it was very hard to imagine I would not have a “normal” relationship with my niece. I felt life was so unfair, how could I not hold her, smell her, touch her?
Then Steph told me she had arranged for Talina to come home after her birth. I realized I would be able to do all the many things I thought I would not have the chance to do.
By bringing Talina home I have been allowed to admire her features, look at her skin, smell her lovely scent and kiss her soft cheeks.
Not once have I felt disgusted, unhappy or uncomfortable being around my beautiful niece. From the first time I saw her in her daddy’s arms at the hospital I knew she would always be in my heart forever. It was nice to have time to hold her body despite her spirit having left.
We can not change our fate, we can only accept it and make the most of it. I truly believe that we have made the most of Talina’s passage on earth until we met again in the future.
Aunty caroline
