Our precious daughter, Heloise Quince Meagher
was born Friday, 15th March 2002, at 6:45pm
in the Royal Hospital for Women
Sydney, Australia.
She weighted 520 grams and was 29 1/2 centimetres long.
Heloise's footprints:
After 5 weeks of complete bedrest, our beautiful daughter was born.
Too early to survive.
She entered the world with her dear hand
cupped under her chin
blessing us with a peaceful smile upon her lips.
Heloise died during birth.
She has her Grandma Helen's chin, and her Grandma Lois's nose.
She is named for our mothers.
Heloise joins her sister, Imogen, and her brother, Søren
and her siblings Aurora and Cae.

On Your Shore (Enya - 1988)
Played at Heloise's funeral
Strange how
my heart beats
to find myself upon your shore.
Strange how
I still feel
My loss of comfort gone before.
Cool waves wash over
and drift away with dreams of youth
So time is stolen
I cannot hold you long enough.
And so
this is where I should be now
Days and nights falling by
Days and nights falling by me.
I know
of a dream I should be holding
days and nights falling by
Days and nights falling by me.
Soft blue horizons
reach far into my childhood days
as you are rising
to bring me my forgotten ways
Strange how I falter
to find I'm standing in deep water
strange how
my heart beats
to find I'm standing on your shore.
