Story

Cosmic Kaspar's Story

On the 11th January 2018, our lives were changed forever with the unexpected arrival of our beautiful and brave son Kaspar Iwan Jones. Tasha went into premature labour and Kaspar was born at just 23 weeks. He weighed just 1lb 3oz but all of that was pure perfection. He fought bravely for 6 hours giving us the precious time to hold him, feel his heart beating against our own, and to feel his breath on our skin.  We are so unbelievably proud to say that we are Kaspar's parents. Because of Kaspar we are stronger, braver, our hearts fuller and yet emptier all at once.

We want people to know that Kaspar lived, and all he knew was love. He did not know fear or hate or pain, and for that we will always be thankful. He is our shooting star, our cosmic Kaspar. 

Sadly, we know that Kaspar was not the only baby that would have died that day. On average 15 babies will die in the UK each day, either before, during or shortly after their birth. Tommy's are a charity who amongst providing great support to families like ours, are working tirelessly to try to bring this number down. 

As the first of many events Owen and lots of his friends will be running the Leicester Half Marathon in October!

 We will post updates on this page, and also on our blog page

Please support us in any way you can. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Love Tasha, Owen & Cosmic Kaspar, xxx
