Hi, my name is Neville Sexton and I’m the new BellaOnline Child Loss Editor. I’d like to take this opportunity to invite you to drop into my BellaOnline Child Loss section where each and every week I’ll be posting fresh articles of interest for the BellaOnline reading community. Therefore I’d also like to invite you to subscribe to my weekly newsletter, which will keep you informed of all the upcoming and up-to-date articles, advice and important information and news relevant to the Child Loss section.

Every week, as the Child Loss Editor, I’ll be sharing a whole spectrum of topics, stories, discussions and ideas with you my readers. Ultimately it’s my aim to help, in any way I can, those of you who have directly or indirectly suffered the loss of a child in your family. It is also my hope to try and inform, guide and listen to those of you who are struggling with how to support those close to you who have been the ones to suffer the terrible loss.

I will be discussing terminal illness, support, spirituality, family, friends, communication and a whole host of other subjects and ideas in order to talk through and open up any avenues of healing and general assistance to those of you who need it. It is an intensely difficult and emotional journey for all those affected by the loss of a child and that is why it is so important that we all reach out and try and help one another, as in the end, this is all we have.

The site also offers a wonderful chance for readers who wish to contribute. Readers either directly suffering a loss themselves; who know someone close (perhaps a family or friend) to have suffered a loss; or those readers who just genuinely want to help with whatever advice, tips or directions they have, can e-mail me or join / instigate a helpful forum discussion. This builds a wonderful interactive, sharing environment for all who partake and allows for a real sense of involvement, connection and togetherness through which healing and understanding can only blossom. This ethos, as with BellaOnline altogether, provides a unique platform for simple, honest, real human exchange.

So please, sign up today for the Child Loss weekly newsletter. To the right, and at the bottom, of each article is where you can easily choose to sign up. Just enter your e-mail address and receive your free weekly newsletter.

It is important to note that at BellaOnline we never spam people or publicise your e-mail addresses. We take this very seriously. We ensure absolute privacy when addresses are submitted.
