My Sisters Story
At 11pm on Dec 10th Liam woke up after having a nap he was happily playing with his toys and his
sister Sara clapping his hands and singing to himself he was"full of beans". It was an extra special
time as he had just learnt his first words "mam and"dada".
Nothing could prepare us for the devastating event that would occur the following morning.
At 6am on the 11th Dec Suzannes husband Russell noticed that Liam was breathing heavily but that
was nothing unusual he was a deep sleeper. Russell left for work at 6.30am that was last time he
ever seen Liam alive.
Suzanne and my neice Sara 10yrs woke up at 8am for school as Sara left room to go get ready she
rushed back in as she heard her mum screaming hysterically Suzanne woke to find Liam face down his
skin purple down one side.
Sara called the ambulance while Suzanne worked on him giving him mouth to mouth and heart massage.
Suzanne didnt let paramedics give up on him either. the doctors at both hospitals Keswick and
Carlisle worked on him due to Suzannes persistence and hysterics although we know we lost Liam in
his sleep at home.
Because his death was so sudden and there was just no warning signs, the doctors thought it
was"Sudden Infant Death Syndrome"
Due to the speed of his death and the lack of symptoms a post mortem was carried out, and it was
only then that the disease was diagnosed. Six days after his death it was revealed Liam had group B
Meningococcal Septicemia!
There was no rash, no temperature, there was nothing wrong with him Everyone always thinks that you
can detect meningitis by the rash but its much more complex than that.
Suzanne says"when you lose a child, you lose a big part of you as well, but you have to fight, you
have to carry on for the sake of the rest of your family: they have all lost liam too".
Liam was my nephew he was a great natured smiling happy little boy.
Everyone that met him loved him for his wee happy nature and his big smile, also known as"wee chunky
guy".
My sister Suzanne's world fell apart on 11th december 06. Our lives will never be the same wee miss
you"wee chunky". I have never mentioned Liam died of Meningitis M. Septicemia. I have always
believed meningitis came with rash and more symptoms but Liam was fine on 10th Dec smiling laughing
with his family when they were singing christmas Carols. These Christmas Carols now have different
memories for us they are a reminder of how one can be taken away so quickly. Christmas and our lives
will never be the same x x
✿Precious forever are memories of you,✿ Today,tomorrow and all life through. ✿ Wherever we are and whatever we do,✿ We shall always Love and remember you. ✿Love always Elaine ✿xxx✿
When you are lonely,
I wish you love.
When you are down,
I wish you joy.
When you are troubled,
I wish you peace.
When things are complicated,
I wish you simple beauty.
When things are chaotic,
I wish you inner silence.
When things are empty,
I wish you hope.
When you need your Angel,
I wish you faith...to know they are with you...always.
Thank you for visiting Stuart's site while I was away. Sorry I missed your birthday Liam. All my love Liz, Stuart Maxwell's mum xx

♥ The Promise ♥
(by Diane Robertson)
Of angel wings and heavenly things
There’s very little known,
For those who have the answers
Are, forever, from us gone.
Life in the hereafter,
In faith, I must accept;
Thoughts that trouble not the people
With families still intact.
But, those of us who’ve travelled
Down the lonely path of grief,
Are forever seeking answers
To the riddle, which is life.
We trek through shadowed forests
Past the ugly shroud of death,
Toward a promise for the future
Of a kinder, better place.
So, we look to see the angel wings
And listen for the hymn
That God will send to guide us
When we leave to be with Him.

❁ The Tapestry of Life ❁
(Author Unknown)
"Tis said that old Time is a shuttle,
Swift weaving the web of our days;
In and out fly fast speeding moments
Thro' the warp and the wool of earth's maze.
***************************************
At times all the colors seem sombre,
Again there are dashes of bright;
Anon all life's threads knot and tangle,
And only defects meet our sight,
***************************************
Full often we stand and in wonder
We gaze at the unveiling loom,
Which hides the design of the fabric
Until we have reached the dark tomb.
***************************************
Only this do we know that the groundwork,
Thro' which the bright colors are twined,
Is woven of charity's fibers,
Which serve the threads closely to bind.
***************************************
And when the last thread has been broken,
And the loom is forever at rest,
We shall see that our life's great Designer,
Knew what for His children was best.

It's raining outside..
So cold and wet
Is it sunny in heaven?
It is I bet
Water falls from the sky..
Just like my tears..
That I cry
I cry so much..
And I hurt with pain
Since you went to heaven..
I've not been the same
I miss you so much..
As the days go by
My tears fall slowly..
As I wipe my eyes
I think of you..
With joy and pride
Please keep me safe..
And walk by my side
I look up to the sky..
As I think of you with love
My sweet Angel..
In heaven above

High Flight.
Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings.
Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun split clouds - and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of; wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hovering there
I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air;
Up, up the long delirious burning blue
I've topped the windswept heights with easy grace,
Where never lark nor even eagle flew;
And while, with silent lifting mind I've trod
The high, un-trespassed sanctity of space
Put out my hand and touched the face of God.

♥ Are there birthdays up in heaven
does an angel blow his horn
announcing to all the angels
this is the day you were born ♥
♥ Can the stars be your balloons
and angel food your cake
presents wrapped in moonbeams
all the angels helped to make ♥
♥ So I’ll whisper a little prayer today
asking everyone up above
to sing you a happy birthday song
and give you all our love ♥

Birthdays in Heaven
Birthdays in heaven are a wonderful site
Where generations of family once again unite.
Nothing on earth can ever compare to the sounds of the angels singing 'Happy Birthday'
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
We gather together with our family and friends
And circle the world with love once again.
We know that you miss us and we want you to know that birthdays up here are not much different than below.
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
For we have cake with candles and one wish we always make that your heart will know love and will never again ache.
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
So tonight go outside and count the stars in the sky
for as I blow out my candles they will flicker up high.
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
And as this is happening you'll know deep in your heart that Heaven and Earth aren't really that far apart!
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
