Love Island’s Malin Andersson has posted an emotional and moving tribute to her daughter Consy three years after her baby sadly passed away.
The 29-year-old former Love Island star took to social media to share the tribute where she detailed her experience of losing her month-old baby.
Sharing a photo of Consy, Malin penned: “22/01/19… Today – your heart stopped beating for me.
“I could feel you whisper in my ear that you wanted to live pain free, and that your end of time was near. One last glance you gave me, and then you were gone.”
She then gave her followers a trigger warning before detailing her heartbreaking ordeal.
“This photo is the reality of NICU. How she looked like once the medication and wires were hooked up,” Malin explained to her fans and followers.
“My baby was in an incubator, tubed up, a monitor screen was the only communication I could have with her to see how she was coping.
“She wasn’t just born, then slowly drifted away. She was alive for a month fighting to live – and that’s what you don’t see. This tiny human having more strength in her than me. A painful long fight to survive.
“She was swollen from all the medication, bruised from the tubing. At one point she had to have fluid released from her body. Oxygen machines to help her breathe.”
She then said: “You see… Baby loss is also about the journey to losing. The trauma. The pain. The PTSD from pretty much living in the hospital every day, hearing the beeping sound of the heart rate monitor. From being next to them every second.
“Looking for hope. Clinging onto the only hope you have. Wanting for an answer.”
She continued: “It lives with you forever, as well as the loss… so today I’m celebrating the fight she had in her. The courage you don’t get to see… her precious little soul – fighting to be free.
“Sending love to those that have lost – I hope your healing journey to finding yourself again is imminent. I pray that you release the trauma and heavy sadness that leaves you with with an empty heart.
Malin then concluded: “You will find life again, a way out… and hope. That love they gave you will always remain, and you’ll find more of it too. RIP baby girl.”
Fans were quick to comment on the post, sending love and warm wishes to the TV and social media personality.
Malin was devastated when her baby daughter Consy passed away just four weeks after her birth in December 2018.
The poignant post comes as the popular TV star waits on the arrival of a baby girl with her boyfriend Jared.
