Description

E-card send by a lesbian mother to family and friends to mark what would have been the second birthday of her son. Video begins with her child’s name (which she asked me to keep in this example) “Samuel” and the poem:

Samuel, I hope you are in
peace, wherever you are,
I miss you terribly, mum

Though my body can no longer
Hold you,
I hold you in my heart,
A mother’s love never forgets.
