This page is written in memory of Una. A gorgeous little baby girl that never got the chance to grow up in this world. Her parents will love, remember and miss her forever.
(This is also written in Norwegian, see below)
Una - Mamma's dear princess, Daddy's gorgeous rose - the most beautiful that exists.
On Wednesday the 3rd of December 2008, Una's mamma and daddy received the terrible news; that their little girl in mamma's tummy had died. Sometime afterwards it was revealed that Una actually died when the placenta loosened. Una was born at 10.04 am on Friday the 5th December 2008. She was so terribly still when she was born.
Una was 39 cm long and weighed 1098 grams, born in the 29th week of pregnancy.
Una got to be together with her parents at Ullevål hospital in Oslo for 6 days. In that time her parents got to be better acquainted with their daughter. They wondered how they had managed to create someone so gorgeous and perfect as Una.
There they washed her, changed her nappy, dressed her and changed her clothes. They made foot and hand prints and clipped a little lock of hair. They held, carried and wheeled her around in her bed, talked and sang to her, smelled, cuddled and kissed her. A lifetimes love to give in all too few days. On the last night Una slept in the bed between her parents.
Una was also visited by one granddad and auntie at the hospital. Also many of mummy's girlfriends wanted, and had the chance to visit little Una. Her proud parents were glad to be able to show her off. Una received teddybears, a blanket, letters and a drawing to keep with her.
These days became extremely precious for Una's mamma and daddy. The most wonderful and toughest days in their lives. They collected memories, that they can keep forever. Like a diamond in their hearts, she will live on.
On Wednesday the 10th of December, Una was carried by her proud parents to Ullevål hospital chapel. It was the first and last time they would all be out for a walk together. At the chapel they lay Una down into her casket, her treasure chest. They were ready to say goodbye, but all the same it felt so wrong. They needed to think that one day they will meet again.
Together with Una in her treasure chest there are 4 teddybears, a letter from mamma and daddy, a postcard, photographs, 3 books, 4 necklaces, a CD, memory stick, a rose a glass elephant, a kinder egg and a Chocolate bar with a fairytale about a fox called Revenka. Una was also given mamma's engagement ring around her wrist and was wrapped up in a MacKenzie tartan scarf.
Una's funeral was held on Tuesday the 16th of December in the chapel at Ullevål hospital. Una's mamma and daddy had worked hard for many days to make it an especially nice day for their daughter and the got fantastic help from lots of good friends.
At the chapel they also had Una's granddad, auntie, uncle, and cousin there to give her a special day. After a very nice and fitting service, Una's mamma and daddy drove to Gressvik churchyard with Una on the back seat.
At Gressvik there were lots of Una's parent's friends there also to meet up with and to follow Una to her final resting place. Speeches were made, songs were sung, and music was played by a trumpet player.
A blanket of wonderful pink flowers was laid over Una, from her family, friends and her parent's collegues.
Then they went inside to warm up with a cup of coffee and some cake and to remember Una. Candles were lit for her, they talked about her and showed her off in a photo album that her parents had made for the people there. That way they could get to know her a little bit too.
-Una-
Thank you so much for everything you gave us.
We will keep the memories in our hearts forever
You lost life, but won eternity
Sleep well, little friend.
With all our love,
Mamma & daddy

Dette er en side til minne om Una. En nydelig liten jentebaby som ikke fikk muligheten til å vokse opp i denne verden. Hennes foreldrene vil elske, minne og savne henne for alltid.
Â
Una – Mammas kjære prinsesse, daddy sin nydelige rose  –  Den vakreste som finnes
Â
Onsdag 3. desember 2008 fikk mammaen og daddyen til Una den grusomste beskjed; at jenta deres i mammas mage var død. I ettertid er det blitt fortalt at Una trolig døde av at morkaken hennes løsnet. Una ble født kl.10:04 fredag 5. desember 2008. Hun var så forferdelig stille da hun ble født.
Una var 39cm lang og veide 1098gram, født i 29. svangerskapsuke.
Â
Una fikk være sammen med sine foreldre på Ullevål sykehus i 6 dager. På den tiden fikk foreldrene hennes blitt litt kjent med sin datter. De undret seg over hvordan de hadde klart å skapt noe så nydelig og perfekt som Una.
Â
Der vasket og stelte de henne, skiftet på henne, kledde og kledde om henne. De laget fot- og håndavtrykk og de klipte en liten hårlokk. De holdt, bar og trillet henne, pratet og sang til henne, luktet, koste og kysset henne. Ett livs kjærlighet skulle gis på altfor få dager. Den siste natten sov Una i sengen mellom foreldrene sine.
Â
Una fikk også besøk av morfaren og tanten sin på sykehuset. Også mange av venninnene til mammaen hennes hadde også lyst og mulighet til å hilse på vesle Una. Hennes stolte foreldre var glade for å kunne vise henne frem. Una fikk bamser, teppe og brev og tegning til å ha med seg.
Â
De dagene ble veldig verdifulle for mammaen og daddyen til Una. De flotteste og tyngste dagene i deres liv. De samlet minner, som vil være med dem for alltid. Som en diamant i deres hjerter vil hun leve videre.
Â
Onsdag 10. desember ble Una båret av sine stolte foreldre til Ullevål kapell. Det ble den første og siste turen de fikk gå ute sammen. På kapellet la de Una ned i skattekisten hennes. De var klare til å ta farvel, men det føltes likevel så feil. De måtte tenke på at de kom til å møtes igjen.
Â
Sammen med Una ligger det i skattekisten fire bamser, brev fra mamma og daddy, kort, bilde, 3 bøker, 4 smykker, en Teakvenere CD, minnepinne, en rose, en glasselefant, ett kinderegg og en eventyrsjokolade med eventyret Revenka. Una fikk forlovelsesringen til mammaen sin rundt hånden og ble godt pakket inn i ett MacKenzie tartan teppe.
Â
Una sin begravelse ble holdt tirsdag 16. desember i kapellet på Ullevål sykehus. Unas mamma og daddy hadde da jobber hardt i flere dager for å lage den spesielle og fine dagen for datteren sin og de hadde fått flott hjelp av mange gode venner.
Â
På kapellet hadde også Unas morfar, tante, onkel og kusine møtt frem for å gi henne en spesiell dag. Etter en fin og verdig seremoni kjørte mammaen og daddyen til Una til Gressvik kirkegård, med Una i baksetet.
På Gressvik hadde mange av Unas foreldre sine venner også møtt opp for å følge Una til hennes siste hvilested. Ord ble sagt og sunget, og musikk fra en trompetist ble spilt.
Ett teppe av flotte rosa blomster ble lagt over Una, fra familien hennes, venner og kollegaer av foreldrene hennes.
Â
Så gikk de inn, varmet seg med en kopp kaffe og litt kaker og for å minnes Una. Lys ble tent for henne, de pratet om henne og hun ble vist frem i et album som foreldrene hennes hadde laget for de som kom. Så de som ville kunne bli litt kjent med henne også.
Â
Â
-Una-
Â
Tusen takk for alt du gav oss.
Minnene vil vi alltid ha i våre hjerter.
Du tapter livet, men vant evigheten.
Sov godt, lille venn.
Â
With all our love,
Mamma & daddy
A Birthday In Heaven - by Kris Smith
I heard you crying yesterday,
And felt your heart-sent love.
So I’m sending you this message
Now, from Heaven up above.
You’re wondering if I’ll celebrate
My Birthday (way up here).
I know you’re missing me today
I feel your essence near.
God planned a special day for me,
He told me with a wink.
He’d ordered me a special cake
(It’s Angel food, I think).
Balloons will fill the streets for me,
They float up through the clouds.
And we have lots of friends up here
That make us laugh out loud.
There is a Birthday carousel,
Jewelled horses ride the wind,
With music playing, oh so sweet…
The magic never ends.
I’ve made so many friends, you see
We laugh and play and sing.
We ride our bikes and play jump rope
And sleep in Angel’s wings.
We’ll have our cake and ice cream
And open gifts - SURPRISE!
But we don’t blow out our candles here
Instead, they light the skies.
With love from your little Angel XX
Merry Christmas sweetheart x x x

2 years ago today.
Una we remember 2 years ago today. Our world caved in around us, and I still miss you every day. Your life and death has changed us. I would like to think we are better for having had you in our lives. Maybe we have more sympathy for others now, than before.
Sometimes it has been very hard to cope with the grief, sometimes it still can be. The pain, depression and anger are no longer so common, but they are not always so far away either. I am still learning how to cope without you, but I am told it is the love that we need to remember, that's what gets us through. Una I love you now and forever. I hope you are happy and in peace wherever you are. XXXXXXXXXXXX love from Daddy
Born Asleep - by Unknown Author
“Born Asleep" - such a beautiful phrase,
Always touches me to the core.
The broken cries of a Mother's heart
When it just can't take anymore.
I open my heart, one Mum to another,
So you never lose your hope,
That although it gets no easier,
I promise you'll learn to cope.
Remember your Angel is sleeping
In a world much kinder than ours
And will always be there to hold your hand
Even in your darkest hours.
My own little Angel will keep an eye,
And play with yours in their park.
But you must find your love and strength,
And feed your own little spark.
You'll never be alone my friend,
I will always understand.
If the tides loom up to swallow you,
Just reach out and grab my hand.
xx
Precious Child by Karen Taylor Good
In my dreams, you are alive and well
Precious child, precious child
In my mind, I see you clear as a bell
Precious child, precious child
In my soul, there is a hole
That can never be filled
But in my heart, there is hope
'Cause you are with me still
In my heart, you live on
Always there never gone
Precious child, you left too soon
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart
In my plans, I was the first to leave
Precious child, precious child
But in this world, I was left here to grieve
Precious child, my precious child
In my soul, there is a hole
That can never be filled
But in my heart there is hope
And you are with me still
In my heart you live on
Always there, never gone
Precious child, you left too soon,
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart
God knows I want to hold you,
See you, touch you
And maybe there's a heaven
And someday I will again
Please know you are not forgotten until then
In my heart you live on
Always there never gone
Precious child, you left too soon
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart
Det vakreste som fins av Jan Teigen
Jeg har ofte gått og tenkt på, hva det var jeg gjorde galt.
Tenkt på alt jeg ikke fikk fortalt.
Det er så mye jeg ville gi deg, det er så mye jeg skulle ha gjort.
Men tida gikk så alt for fort.
Du er det beste som har hendt meg og det kjæreste jeg har.
Ingen kan ta fra oss det vi har.
For kjærligheten kommer og kjærligheten går.
Men det vi hadde sammen skal bestå.
Om det skulle blåse kaldt. Om jeg leter overalt.
Ingen er så god som du.
Du er det vakreste som fins.
Om det skulle blåse kaldt. Om jeg aldri fikk fortalt.
At ingen er så god som du.
Du er det vakreste som fins for meg.
Var så godt å være nær deg. Godt å ha deg som en venn.
Å jeg lengter etter varmen din igjen.
Var så fint å være sammen. Og du smilte da du dro.
Dine øyne sa meg mer enn du forsto.
Det fins håp i alt du tenker.
Det fins håp i alt du gjør.
I mitt liv er du et lys som aldri dør.
Vi skal kjempe sammen for de drømmene vi har.
Vi skal finne mange nye bedre svar.
Og bålet som vi tente det skal aldri brenne ned.
For jeg veit at vi kan holde liv i det.

As Christmas time approaches
We miss you more and more
Memories of past Yule times
We always will adore
We still hang the decorations
Put the lights upon the tree
We hang the cards upon the wall
This one's for you, you see
Even though you are not here
You're always in our hearts
So we remember you this Christmas
While we're temporarily apart.

What A Grieving Mother Really Thinks - by Unknown Author
Hello old friend, Oh yes you know
I lost my child a while ago.
No, no please, Don’t look away
And change the subject, It’s ok.
You see at first I couldn’t feel,
It took so long, but now it’s real.
I hurt so much inside you see
I need to talk, Come sit with me?
You see, I was numb for so very long,
And people said, “My, she is so strong.”
They did not know I couldn’t feel,
My broken heart made all unreal.
But then one day, as I awoke
I clutched my chest, began to choke,
Such a scream, such a wail broke from me..
My child! My child! The horror of reality.
But everyone has moved on, you see,
everyone except for me
Now, when I need friends most of all,
Between us there now stands a wall.
My pain is more than they can bear,
When I mention my child,
I see their blank stare.
“But I thought you were over it,”
Their eyes seem to say--
No, no, I can’t listen to this, not today.
So I smile and pretend, and say, “Oh, I’m Ok”.
But inside I am crying, as I turn away.
And so my old friend, I shall paint on a smile,
As I have from the start,
You never knowing all the while,
All I’ve just said to you in my heart.
