Louise had cancer when she was nine years old and had to have a leg amputated. This setback did not
prevent her from leading a full and active life. Her disability gave her a special empathy with
physically and mentally handicapped children and after completing her degree went on to teach at
Gibside Special School in Gatehead where she adored the children and always celebrated their
achievements. The music was recorded by the children at her school and the proceeds from the CD
donated to the North of England Childrens Cancer Research charity. The song "Kumbaya" was
played at her funeral.
On the last day of term 2005 she became very breathless and was taken to hospital where she was
diagnosed with secondary liver cancer. This came as a total shock as she had been cancer free for 18
years. Louise dealt with this terrible news with enormous courage and dignity, she never ever asked
"Why me?" even finding time to nominate me for the Evening Chronicle Mother of the Year
competion.
We thought Louise was a truly inspirational young girl and our life is so empty without her.
And a cure was not to be
So he put His arms around her
And whispered, "Come with Me"
With tearful eyes we watched her suffer
And saw her fade away,
Although we loved her dearly
We could not make her stay.
A golden heart stopped beating
Hard working hands to rest,
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the best

A poem from mum
I picture you walking up the path
and walking through the door
I listen out for your gentle laugh
but i cant hear it anymore
I hold my hands out everyday
Hoping for your gentle touch
But i dont feel your warm hands touch me
Its a feeling i miss so much
I wait for you to wipe my tears
But you want yours wiping too
And everyday still hurts so much
Because my life is missing you
I keep your memory in my soul
It burns so bright each day
And all the things i have in my mind
Theres three words i want to say
I Miss You
How quickly can you miss someone
A week,an hour,a day,
We started missing you Louise
The minute you went away.
We try to come to terms with it
And accept that you have gone,
But without you life is not the same
It's such a struggle to go on.
We think God must have looked down
And seen how good you were
And he needed a special angel
To lend a hand up there.
It's the only thing we can think of
What other reason could there be?
We just wish He'd send you home
And from this heartbreak we'd be free.
A poem for Kath
Please Listen To A Broken Heart That Speaks
I feel more depressed
Each day when I awake
I wish to god you could tell me
There has been a big mistake.
My darling daughter was taken
From her mothers love
To live with the angels
In heaven up above
I did not have her with me
For the time I should have had
No longer can I hold her
Which makes me very sad?
The pain of losing my precious child
Shows in every single tear
I spend each day missing you
Longing to have you near
Life for me is lonely now
Without you by my side
My Broken shattered heart
Is very hard to hide
People tell me that time is a healer
That the pain will go away
They don’t understand
That this pain is here to stay
For when you lose a child
There is nothing that can compare
The bond we had at their birth
Will never leave, it’s always there
The love a mother has
Runs so very deep
That love is so special
It’s in her heart to keep
A mother’s heart is broken
She is ripped apart inside
There is a part of her missing
It left when her child died
So please don’t tell me to get over it
For this I can not do
Unless you understand my feelings
And this has happened to you
Only another mother who has lost a child
Can understand my pain
Because the also suffer daily
As the memories of their child remain
We are a band of mothers
Whose hearts will never heal?
For the loss of our children
Is for us, so very real.

poem from Mum
The light that was your life has been extinguished,
The warmth of your sun no longer warms me,
The joy of your presence is not with me.
How shall I live without you? Of course I must,
At first it is like a sudden cripple, groping blinded,
I see no beauty around me, I feel and taste nothing,
My laughter is false,for there is no joy.
And yet it is not meant that my life,
Should only be bathed in your reflection.
Gradually but surely, I must go forward,
Step by step building the days to a fulfilment that you
knew.
Your colourful, busy, exciting life must be my inspiration.
You did not lean on me for your joys, and neither must I.
God help me to fill my days with meaning
And again in time with laughter,
So that when we meet again you will be proud of me
A poem written by me for every grieving mother xxxxx
Dear Kath I wrote this poem and I would like to share it with you in memory of our beautiful Angel children, my heart truly goes out to you xxxxxxxxxxxx
Dear Mother
Dear mother I am watching you
as you walk this land each day,
You don’t see me at your side
or hear the words I say,
Please believe me mum
I will stay right by your side,
I am there to wipe away your tears
that you try!!! but cannot hide,
I will hold you close to my heart
as I gently stroke your hair,
Dear mother of mine please understand
that I am always there,
It hurts so much to watch you grieve
as you sit alone and cry,
I was not ready to leave you
I did not want to die,
God took me by the hand that night
as he led me safely to the light,
He said please come with me MY child
the time is almost right,
You will see your loved ones again
in Heaven up above,
But for now my child
please leave with them your eternal love,
At Heavens gate I'll be waiting
to be with you again,
I will wait there for you
so I can take away your pain,
I will take you by the hand
and we will walk through Heaven's door,
Then Mother we can be together,
together forever once more.

FOR EVERY GRIEVING MUM
Dear Louise I visited your resting place today when I visited Amy, I wander around evey time im in the cemetary as I have made some lovely friends who have also lost their children and I visit each 1 to say a little prayer, there are so many young ones around the top end of the cemetary and my heart goes out to each and every mother who faces the pain we go thorough each day , time is no healer for a parent who has lost a precious child and we just go on living a nightmare each day longing to be with our children again, please watch over your mam and send her your love always she really needs to know you are by her side every second, god bless you sweet angel R.I.P BEAUTIFUL GIRL XXXXX
Dear Kath my heart truly goes out to you because only a mother who has the same heartache truly understands how life really is when we lose a precious child which I believe gets harder with the older the child was when they were cruelly snatched from us, we are a unique group of adults who are left here for a reason although we would all rather be with our children but 1 glorious day we will be reunited with them for eternity, here is a poem I wrote that I would like to share with you and your beautiful daughter, take care
god bless xxxxxxxxxx
Angels are all around us and watch us from above,
Angels watch us and they guide us, they wrap us in their love,
Their loving arms surround us but their faces we can not see,
Their whispers we can not hear as they talk to you and me
We know they are watching us each and every day,
If only we could hear all the loving words they say,
They talk to us while we are sleeping and appear to us in our dreams,
They know when we are crying and they hear our silent screams
Our Angels are always there for us to wipe away our tears,
They help us to get by each day and try to wash away our fears
Our Angel children don’t want us to be sad,
Because they will always love us their,
Earthly Mum & Dad
Written by Jackie Longworth
On behalf of our Angel Children
Who were taken far too soon.
Perhaps
Perhaps, if we could see
The splendour of the land
To which our loved are called from you and me
We'd understand.
Perhaps, if we could hear
The welcome they receive
From old familiar voices-all so dear-
We would not grieve.
Perhaps, if we could know
The reason why they went
We'd smile- and wipe away the tears that flow
And wait content.

Thinking of you all.XXX
I Was Loved, Therefore I Am
I was loved, therefore I am,
And in being loved, I am treasured.
When I peeled away my layers,
And all that was left was my essence,
The bareness of me,
I was still loved.
I was loved, therefore I am,
And in being loved I was able to grow.
In my mistakes held,
In my successes celebrated,
I was always loved.
I was loved therefore I am,
And in being loved I learned to love.
In the sun filled day,
In the ecstasy of the night,
I was loved and loved others.
To be loved is all you need:
I was loved....and so, I will always be.
