You may wonder why I have included some websites and blog links.
Well some are friends whose work I admire and love, others are just beautiful sites and blogs which I love and are totally indulgent.
Two are especially important and inspiring to me as they show the strength of human spirit and the courage we have to go forward in the most difficult of circumstances.
One is the Nie Nie dialogues by Stephanie Nielson who received burns to over 80% of her body in a horrific plane accident.
She is a mother to four young children and has another on the way.
Her story is especially relevant knowing some of the hurdles she has had to overcome as not only a mother but as a burns victim such as my son Jude.
You can see her story here: http://nieniedialogues.com/
The other is the beautiful and whimsical blog of photographer Sheye Rosemeyer.
Again her strength and courage and the inspiring things she has done after losing her daughter Ava in a terrible accident at home in 2007 has touched me in a profound way – this is her story and you can see her story and the
wonderful tribute to Ava that arisen from her family’s loss here: http://www.sheyerosemeyerphotography.com/blog/
I am inspired by people in my everyday life too, not only those close to me who have suffered immeasurable personal loss but those who live their lives with a full heart and open mind - I take encouragement and inspiration from them everyday x.
