“I Met an Angel Once” is a tenderly written and beautifully illustrated keepsake book, created in memory of our daughter Zaïlie, and for every family who has loved and lost.

Based on the true story of twin sisters, Zaïlie and Thaïs, this book was born from the heartbreak of losing one twin and the journey of holding space for both grief and love. While it speaks especially to the loss of a twin, its gentle message and heartfelt words offer comfort to anyone who has experienced the loss of a baby, a sibling, or a child.

With soft language and comforting imagery, it honours the bond that lives on beyond life, inviting moments of remembrance, connection, and healing.

This is a book to treasure and keep, a timeless keepsake to return to when you need closeness, comfort, or a way to gently share your love. It can also be read with earthside children, helping them understand and stay connected to the sibling they carry in their hearts.

Thoughtfully crafted, the book features a hardcover wrapped in beautiful woven linen and high-quality premium printing to create something truly special. Inside, you’ll find a dedicated space to place a photo and write the name of the baby or child you’ve lost, so their memory can be cherished, always.

$5 from every sale will be donated to support families experiencing loss, as well as the bereavement team at the Mater Hospital in Brisbane, where Thaïs and Zaïlie were born. These funds will help provide meaningful resources, including cold cots, so families can have more time and memories with their babies.

We will also be donating copies of the book to the Mater’s bereavement team as keepsakes for grieving families, and to the NICU where Thaïs spent her first 8 weeks of life, to offer comfort and support families in the hardest of times.

This is more than a book.
It’s a promise. A legacy.
A quiet space to grieve, remember, and love.

With love, always.
