Ask me his name : a mother's story of hope : learning to live and laugh again after the loss of my baby
Wright, Elle2019
Book
Elle Wright had an admittedly easy pregnancy - her scans went well, she and her baby were healthy throughout, and in May 2016, she and her husband welcomed their son, Teddy, into the world. Just a few hours after giving birth, they woke to find a nurse holding a cold and unresponsive Teddy, who had stopped breathing during the night. The happiest day of Elle's life had turned into every parent's worst nightmare, and she had to let her beautiful baby boy go. Three days after delivering him into the world, Elle sat with Teddy in her arms as he took his last breaths, and tucked him in for the final time. 'Ask Me His Name' is a moving account of Elle's pregnancy, Teddy's life, and what happens when a mother leaves a hospital with empty arms.
