Today, Malin spoke of how she never had the chance to hold her daughter and her emotional words are sure to resonate with mothers everywhere.
Reality TV star Malin wanted to mark what would have been her daughter’s first birthday and she did so in a touching, eloquent manner.
Her post read:
“To my precious daughter.
Today marks what would have been your 1st Birthday. Today the pain feels like I am reliving this exact moment this time last year. The pain is real.
An unexpected emergency c-section, to see your beautiful big brown eyes staring back at me. I didn’t get to hold you, but you know I would have if I could.
Each day you were in that tiny incubator, I felt like the most worthless human. I felt helpless – but I want you to know I never left your side, not for a minute. The month you were alive you served me such a purpose. You showed me how to be courageous, and how to be a mother. The suffering I saw you endure, I can’t even describe, which is why I now know that Heaven is the best place for you. This world is far too cruel for a beautiful angel like you.
You’ve strengthened me, and reminded me of how important life is. You have showed me what is really important in this crazy world we are living in. You’ve showed me what TRUE love is, and I believe you have helped me through a lot of suffering I have endured this year by being my guardian angel.
For I know that you’re not with me in physical form, but my gosh you are definitely here right beside me. I feel you every day. I envision my mum holding you in her arms. I love you endlessly…. until I meet you again
Mumma”.
Malin lost her mother to cancer in 2017. In today’s post, she spoke of how she imagines her mum looking after her daughter, giving her some comfort in a truly heartbreaking situation.
