Stories about those days.

The stories that people have about Jamie’s photos are a source of amazement. Β Some are of the “that’s me and we were doing this” type of stories from Jamie’s friends. Some are the “I never met Jamie but this was taken on my birthday and it means a lot to me. And some are just stunningly moving one of a kind stories.

    I was actually born on January 12, 1998, but I wanted to see how was life before I even existed, as weird it may sound. It feels strangely comforting, it seems so normal, yet so distant but interesting.

    At 06:05 on this day my first born arrived in this world after 36 hours in labour and a blue light ambulance ride to hospital. I was so tired and she was in special care baby unit. She was OK but they wanted to keep an eye on her. She was there for five days in total. I felt that my baby didn’t need me and wasn’t really mine. The doctors and nurses were more important in her life at that time.

    On this day my daughter Sarah was born at home in our own bed. I had a wonderful midwife in attendance who made everything feel so relaxed and natural. Sixteen years later I helped my daughter change her name to Bonnie which suits her better. This picture looks like two,people who love each other having fun and just hanging out together.

    This is the day I was born. How amazing to see this is what someone who I don’t know was having a gathering. I love to be around friends and family. I love to have big groups together and enjoy time with people. This is amazing.

    I finally came into the world on this day. My mother had a c-section and the doctor pulled me out butt first and I was kicking a screaming. This photo is amazing to me. It shows that no matter what bad thing is going on in the world, there is still something beautiful happening.

    I turned one years old when this was taken. Sadly I do not like clowns very much either. I can tolerate them but if one is holding a knife or other sharp object and looks at me funny then i’m out. Forget it.

    Has anyone noticed a red theme running throughout the April photos of 1980? I can’t work out what the photo is of on the photo posted on on my birthday (28/4)…

    The day my older sister was born! Funny it’s a picture of headphones being wrapped around a body part. My mom always said she would listen to her rock music and take the headphones and wrap her belly with them and my sister would dance in her belly!
