I'm very grateful to Karen and Paul Ledsham for talking to me for this story. They lost both of their kids to rare illnesses, but have found new purpose in their lives by honouring their son's wish and becoming foster parents. sthelensreporter.co.uk/news/people/st…

Karen Ledsham the world club challenge was last weekend and thought of Harrison and Greg Inglis . It’s a picture and vision that wont ever leave me. Kids , even if they aren’t your own, you see that look of amazement and wonder. Hope you are well.

How is it 8 years today that you flew away…….most days it only feels like last week and then others it’s an eternity……it’s definitely not the life we wanted or planned and it’s so damned hard-we will both keep trying to live without you as best we can 💔
