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

I'm just a little Angel
Sent from up above
To help guide you and protect you
And give you lots of love.
ჱܓ
On those days when you feel lonely
Kinda sad and blue
You'll feel my little Angel wings
Tenderly enfolding you.
ჱܓ
I'm just a little Angel
Come down from Heaven above
Who will always and forever
Give you my "Bestest" Angel Hugs.
ჱܓ
Lights of Love
Can you see our candles
Burning in the night?
Lights of love we send you
Rays of purest white
Children we remember
Though missing from our sight
In honour and remembrance
We light candles in the night
All across the big blue marble
Spinning out in space
Can you see the candles burning
From this human place?
Oh, angels gone before us
Who taught us perfect love
This night the world lights candles
That you may see them from above
Tonight the globe is lit by love
Of those who know great sorrow,
But as we remember our yesterdays
Let's light one candle for tomorrow
IF HEAVEN HAD A PHONE
I cannot dial your number,
I can't get through to you,
I called the operator,
She did all that she could do.
There is no code for heaven,
I cannot place the call,
No numbers left to call,
I reckon I've tried them all.
If heaven had a phone,
I'd ring you every day,
If heaven had a phone,
There's things I want to say.
To tell you that I love you,
And miss you every day,
How much I prayed to god,
That he could let you stay.
If heaven had a phone,
I'd ring you every day,
If heaven had a phone,
I'd hear your voice, know you're okay,
I just want to speak to heaven,
Please do you have a direct line,
Operator says no number,
But your loved one says they’re doing fine.

Our lives go on without you
But nothing is the same,
We have to hide our heartaches
When someone speaks your name.
Sad are the hearts that love you
Silent the tears that fall,
Living our hearts without you
Is the hardest part of all.
You did so many things for us
Your heart was kind and true,
And when we needed someone
We could always count on you.
The special years will not return
When we were all together,
But with the love within our hearts
You will walk with us forever.

A FOUR LEAF CLOVER
A four leaf clover
A treasure priceless and rare
Like my child in heaven above
Now in gods tender loving care.
Each leaf a meaning a part of my grief
One leaf for strength
One for memories so dear
One leaf for peace
And one for my faith in god above.
Each represents a part of my life
My child in heaven
Forever missed and forever loved.
The first leaf on the clover
Stands for strength
To make it through the day
From morning to night darkness to light
With gods help each step of the way.
The second leaf on the clover
Stands for peace
That only god can bring
A peace that restores my mourning heart
Smoothes the edges of pain
And help me learn to live again.
The third leaf on the clover
Stands for memories
That I hold dear
Their spirit will shine on
In the memories left behind
Although time may pass
They will never disappear.
The fourth leaf on the clover
Stands for faith in god above
Believing with all my heart
In what I cannot see
Knowing we will meet again
By the golden gates in heaven above.
Until then I’ll Keep my memories
Tucked deep inside with love
Along with my four leaf clover
My treasures from heaven above.
A clover A treasure Blessings
From above strength peace
Memories and faith
All sent from heaven with gods everlasting love.

The Mention Of Your Name
Do you make them laugh up their,
Does your smile bring them good cheer?
Do you make the sun shine brighter,
Like you did when you were here?
The very mention of your name,
The memories of your smile,
The little things you said and did,
Are with us all the while.
You meant so very much to us,
There’s nothing left to say,
Except that without you here
There is no perfect day.
For no one knows the heartache,
That lies behind our smiles,
No one knows how many times
We have broken down & cried.
We want to tell you something
So there wont be any doubt,
You're so wonderful to think of,
But so hard to be without...

Sweet Memories
I never meant to leave you
Could I have only stayed
We would be going on in life
With all the plans we made
Now all the hopes and dreams we shared
Are but sweet memories
For you to tuck inside your heart
Now when you remember me
Remember all the good times
And all the joy we shared
Remember how you touched my life
And how I really cared
Think back on all the laughter
And wipe away the tears
You have still many miles to go
And still have many years
Don't look back, look forward
This day is a brand new start
And as you travel on in life
You'll take a bit of my heart
I never meant to leave you
But still you'll not be alone
For as long as my love lives in you
I'll never really be gone

Forever Young
May the good Lord be with you
Down every road you roam
And may sunshine and happiness
surround you when you're far from home
And may you grow to be proud
Dignified and true
And do unto others
As you'd have done to you
Be courageous and be brave
And in my heart you'll always stay
Forever Young, Forever Young
Forever Young, Forever Young
May good fortune be with you
May your guiding light be strong
Build a stairway to heaven
with a prince or a vagabond
And may you never love in vain
and in my heart you will remain
Forever Young, Forever Young
Forever Young, Forever Young
Forever Young
Forever Young
And when you finally fly away
I'll be hoping that I served you well
For all the wisdom of a lifetime
No one can ever tell
But whatever road you choose
I'm right behind you, win or lose
Forever Young, Forever Young
Forever Young ,Forever Young
Forever Young, Forever Young
For, Forever Young, Forever Young

Why is our heart breaking.
When we think of you,
Why is our body aching
With our memories so true,
⋱♥â‹°
Why did you have to go,
We need you now today,
Its because we love you so,
In each and every way,
⋱♥â‹°
We will try and keep on going,
We will try to keep so strong,
But you should be here beside us.
In our home where you belong.

My Very Special Mum
My Mum is a survivor,
Or so I've heard it said.
But I can hear her crying at night,
When all others are in bed.
I watch her lay awake at night,
And go to hold her hand.
She doesn't know I'm with her,
To help her understand.
But like the sands on the beach,
That never wash away...
I watch over my surviving Mum,
Who thinks of me each day.
She wears a smile for others...
A smile of disguise!
But through Heaven's door I see,
Tears flowing from her eyes.
My Mum tries to cope with death,
To keep my memory alive.
But anyone who knows her knows,
It is her way to survive.
As I watch over my surviving Mum,
Through Heaven's open door...
I try to tell her that angels,
Protect me forevermore.
I know that doesn't help her...
Or ease the burden she bears.
So if you get a chance, go visit her...
And show her that you care.
For no matter what she says...
No matter what she feels,
My surviving Mum has a broken heart,
That time won't ever heal.
Dad’s Cry Too….
I cannot ease your aching heart Dad,
Nor take your pain away;
But let me stay and take your hand
And walk with you today.
I'll listen when you need to talk Dad,
I'll wipe away your tears;
I'll share your worries when they come,
I'll help you face your fears.
I'm here and I will stand by you Dad,
On each hill you have to climb;
So take my hand, let's face the world...
And live just one day at a time.
You're not alone, for I'm still here Dad,
I'll go that extra mile;
And when your grief is easier,
I'll help you learn to smile
An Angel From Heaven
God sent me an angel from heaven above
It's filled with complete unconditional love
It watches and follows wherever I go
If I'm happy or sad this little angel does know
It climbs upon my lap and wipes away all my tears
One look in those eyes wipes away all my fears
For in those soft gentle eyes there’s something I see
Which speaks to me silently 'you always have me'
As those soft gentle kisses bring a smile to my face
And a love in my heart which can't be replaced
It continues to tell me in it's own special way
Of how much it loves me as it begins to say
'At night I will cuddle by your side while you sleep
My life is to love you, this promise I keep
I'll wake you come morning with kisses galore
You'll giggle and laugh and ask me for more'
'When sadness you feel or life lets you down
I'll do whatever it takes to wipe off your frown
I'll show you some tricks, I'll bring you my toy
Or rest my head in your lap, if this brings you joy'
'If sickness should keep you in bed for the day
I'll stay right beside you, we don't have to play
And if going for walks is something you do
I'll be your companion take me with you'
I'll try hard to show you my love is so strong
I'll try only to please you, I'll try not to do wrong
If a mistake I should make, then I ask this of you
Remember that angels can make mistakes too'
'I'll ask not much of you, it's for love that I yearn
Because loves what god taught me to give in return
It's all unconditional and comes straight from the heart
And my promise I give you till death do us part'
'So this is my story one I wanted to share
Of my littlest angel who's always right there
This littlest angel that I'm so thankful of
Yes this littlest angel of unconditional love'

I stood by your bed last night;
I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying you found it hard to sleep.
I spoke to you softly as you brushed away a tear,
'It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here.'
I was close to you at breakfast,
I watched you pour the tea,
You were thinking of the many times, your hands reached to me.
I was with you at the shops today; your arms were getting sore.
I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.
I was with you at my grave today; you tend it with such care.
I want to re-assure you, that I'm not lying there.
I flew with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key.
I gently landed on you; I smiled and said, 'it's me.'
You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair. I tried so hard to let you know, that I was there.
It's possible for me, to be so near you everyday.
To say to you with certainty, 'I never went away.'
You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew...
in the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.
The day is over... I smile and watch you yawning and say 'good-night, God bless, I'll see you in the morning.'
And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,
I'll fly across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side.
I have so many things to show you,
there is so much for you to see.
Be patient, live your journey out...
then come home to be with me.

2 beautiful poems for a beautiful angel. xxx
ღ♥ღ♥ღ♥ღ Memories Of You ღ♥ღ♥ღ♥ღ
© Alan Pemberton
I had a drifting mood today
It stirred a thought or two
My mind went back to happy days
To memories of you.
Our lives are like a tapestry
With two distinctive sides
The front a perfect picture
The back our secret hides.
Our memories are built like this
Some are clear and real
Others travel in and out
With no specific feel.
Life's phases too are tapestries
With textures of their own
Some we love and some we hate
From all of them we've grown.
We gather wisdom from our pains
From torment we grow strong
Our spirit nurtured by mistakes
Still fated, travels on.
Perhaps one thing which stays the same
And will forever more
Is the love we hold for another soul
The people we adore.
So I had a drifting mood today
It stirred a thought or two
My mind went back to happy days
To memories of you.

Through veils of peace may you ascend
To promised planes above
Where comfort shall await you
In those summerlands of love.
Although my grief is deep and raw
Although my pain is great
I know that you are still with me
I know that you will wait.
For in God's time we'll meet again
Of this I am quite sure
I loved you so much on this earth
In absence even more.
THANKS A MILLION!!!!
I am so pleased to have my computer back I have really really missed lighting my candles & messages for Christopher I miss him so much.
I would like to thank each and every one of you
that have continued to light candles, leave tributes & photographs for Christopher while my computer has been getting fixed.
It has really annoyed me that I have been unable
to light my candles & tributes for all your wonderful angels.
I have missed being in touch with all of you,
and not being able to read all the lovely messages
you leave for Christopher & I they really do mean such a lot to me.
It will take me awhile to read all the messages I have missed but I will read each and every one of them once again thank you all for your support
it is very much appreciated you are all so very kind
A part of us is missing
And there is nothing we can do
The part of us that’s missing,
My dearest Angel is you
