"The Diary" is an inspirational story as shown through the eyes of a grieving mother. Whilst confronting issues that make most people feel uncomfortable, it attempts to shatter the walls of fear and ignorance surrounding infant death in general. This book has been utilised by health care professionals, other bereavement care organisations, as well as bereaved families throughout Australia and overseas since it was first published in 1998. "It doesn't matter how short your life is; just make it matter!" (Lynne McPherson author)
