Sinead added: "Hearing other people's stories has brought me comfort, and I hope to do the same for them. It’s a tough subject to talk about and a club that no one wants to be a part of but opening up and sharing a little tribute to our angel baby has helped me and Simon in more ways then one".

The owner of Vacious by Sinead also shared a poem she wrote for her baby.
A tiny star that shone so bright,
Our little heart, you gave a big fight
Though your time was brief, your love remains
A spark that will guide us through the joys and pains.
Your big bro will always love you too
Because even he has a heart as big as you
And of course Your daddy and i will always wonder
Where our little heart is growing fonder
But there’s one thing we know for sure
A heart as special as yours needs no cure
And In our dreams we will see your smiling face
Until we all meet again in our special place
