In memory of Willow Bloom Smythe

By Bonnie Magill

Every little life matters and deserves to be celebrated

I created this page for Say Their Name Day to raise funds for Red Nose so they can continue their important work supporting bereaved families across Australia.

If you can support my fundraiser, you will be helping to bring care and comfort to families when they need it most.

Every dollar raised helps support bereaved families by making sure every family has access to the information and networks they need to move forward and rebuild their lives, now and in the future. 

That means timely access to information resources, an understanding voice on the end of the phone, and an ongoing connection with other families through support groups and remembrance activities.

So please, help me raise much-needed funds to ensure every bereaved family has access to the support they need, for as long as they need it.

Thank you.

Willow Bloom

Wednesday 20th Mar
One day a dream, the next a living nightmare. Never did we think we would be grieving our beautiful daughter, never did we think we would feel so heavy in this world, carrying such shock and sadness. Our lives changing in a way we didn't ever want and absolutely nothing we could do about it. A pain so large, that we will forever have to live with it. With no reason, we get no answers to our forever questions. 
24.06.22 , our perfect baby girl was brought into the world forever sleeping. After hearing those heart stopping words the night before *there is no heart beat* 
A little shy of 33 weeks pregnant, we thought we were on the home stretch, in the clear, nothing to worry about. Life can be so wonderful and feel like all your stars are aligned, to then be turned upside down and inside out. 
Willow would of had the most amazing life here on earth, here in our arms. Delivering her via my 3rd cesarean section it was the most out of body experience. It wasn't normal, it wasn't what we had planned, it wasn't something I thought I could live with. I wanted her to open her eyes, I wanted her to take that first breathe, I wanted to hear her beautiful little cry, I wanted them to have it all wrong and for her to be safe in our arms. 
Today we still walk so heavy on this earth, but in some moments when Willow is spoken about we get a gush of lightness, only to know we aren't the only ones who are keeping our angels name and memory alive 
Nearly 2 years has gone by and it still feels like yesterday. 
We love you so much Willow and we forever will hold you in our hearts 
Forever and ever and always, to the moon, stars , the whole galaxy,  even Mars ✨️
