Some Words Of Comfort
No Parent, or Grandparent or indeed any family should be where we are today.
But Kajal, Nik, life will, from time to time throw at us, (and if I may use cricket terminology), some googlies and bouncers which we have no choice but to bat them.
Being around you in recent days, we have seen you face your predicament with courage, strength, fortitude and above all, dignity.
Nik, your mum and Kajal, your mum and I have batted quite a few of these googlies and bouncers in our lives, but the way you two have gone about handling this awful situation has allowed us to draw strength from you and given us hope that together, we will get through this.
Your princess Aurelia came into this world without taking a single breath of our polluted air, did not utter a single word that would upset anyone and did not commit a single sin. Now, you can’t get any purer than that and your God has in his kingdom one of the purest angels.
Nik, you know that your dad was a very good friend of mine and knowing that now he too has a grandchild to love, care for and play with gives me great comfort – I do hope you do too.
By inviting the people you did to join you on the day made all of us feel very special. But, please do also remember that both of you are very special to us and if at any time you need us, please pick up that phone, send us an email or bang those jungle drums and I promise you on behalf of all of us that we will be there for you.
May your God bless you all.
Dad xx
