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
Just Naturally

Friends are like flowers
That's how it should be
So sweet and so special
Just naturally
Writing this poem
So you know that I care
Sending a flower
With love always there
Soft and so smooth
With fragrance divine
With greatest emotion
My love is defined
Hope when you get this
You'll send it to me
Keep love just flowing
That's how it should be.

A poem for your parents sweetheart love always jackie xx
Just another day
Sitting here reflecting
of the happy times we had,
Together as a family
the proud mam and dad,
Little did we know back then
of the pain that was to come,
The terrible pain a parent goes through
to lose a daughter or a son.
Our hearts are forever broken
our pain there is no relief,
Life for us is so different now
as we walk the path of grief,
We carry with us our sadness
since the day you went away,
getting up each morning
hoping to get through another day.
The world around us moving on
our life just standing still,
Remembering our daughter
we promise we always will,
Our soul may be destroyed
our hearts broken in two,
We will go on remembering
the love we had from you.

A poem for Kath xxxx
Many sleepless nights I have
since you went away,
Many sleepless nights I have
just waiting for my day,
Many sleepless nights I have
when all I do is cry,
Many sleepless nights I have
when I just want to die,
Many sleepless nights I have
wanting to see your smiling face,
Many sleepless nights I have
missing your love that nothing can replace,
Many sleepless nights I have
with many thoughts in my head,
Many sleepless nights I have
remembering every word you said,
Many sleepless nights I have
just asking myself WHY???,
Many sleepless nights I have
knowing we never said goodbye, x
Many sleepless nights I have
longing to hold you near,
Many sleepless nights I have
your voice I need to hear,
Many sleepless nights I have
waiting for my time to end,
Many sleepless nights I have
my neverending love to you I send,
Many sleepless nights I have
knowing I must wait,
Many sleepless nights I have
until we meet at heavens gate
Many sleepless nights I have
with my heart filled with pain,
Many sleepless nights I have
needing to hold my child again,
Many sleepless nights I have
wondering how long it's going to be?
Many sleepless nights I have
until we are together
(You and me)

For Kath xx
I just wanted to tell you that I didnt forget Louise's anniversary on Tuesday - I was thinking of her, and you Kath, all day. My PC needed repairing, and I wasnt able to use it for a few days. I hope your doing okay. Anniversary's are always the worse days for me, so I can only imagine how bad you feel on those days. My Mom will have been gone, for 16 years in August and I still feel absolutely devastated by that. She once told me, that the worse thing that could ever happen to her, would be for me to die, before her! And having kids myself now, I know that however much I loved my Mom, it didnt compare to what she felt for me. So I do hope your coping this week and remembering all the good times you shared together. I was in Bethany's school this week and I'm in awe of special needs teachers, and their assistants. I find caring for Bethany natural, but these folk choose to do what they do, for other people's kids - and even I, am not sure I could do it, for someone else's offspring - so I'm sure that in Louise's short life she was able to reach out and do a wonderful job, that meant so much to the most vulnerable people in society and their carers. And many folk can live their 70 years plus, and not achieve so much. The fact she did all that, with a disability herself is doubly wonderful. May she always shine brightly in the memories and the hearts of those that loved her. xx
Thank-You

Gone BUT NOT FORGOTTEN ........
Gone, but not forgotten
This pain, I CANNOT HIDE
In memory, I see you
A million tears, I've cried!
The tender thoughts you left me
Come to my memory
Your loving smile, SO PRECIOUS
Will always be with me.
You visit me in summer
When flowers are in bloom
Upon a ray of sunshine
A star-lit night in June.
When winds are gently blowing
Across a cloudless sky
Within a rolling meadow
Where horse and cattle lie.
I see you in the treetops
As summer comes to be
In shadows, you will linger
A sould so young and free.
I see you in the garden
Your scent does fill the air
Just like a precious flower
A rose, so ever fair.
On country roads, I find you
Along the wooded lane
Within the distant thunder
I see you in the rain
In early hush of the morning
You come without a sound
Upon a blazing sunset
Your memory can be found.
Like sprigs of morning glory
Upon the vine, they grow
With branches reaching outward
Into my heart - you go.
Just like a special angel
God wrapped you in His care
And took you off to heaven
to live with Him - up there!
BUT often, i still see you
Upon a light blue sky
And long so MUCH TO HOLD YOU
Why did you have to die??????

This poem is to all my WONDERFUL, WARM, DEDICATED,
CARING GONE TOO SOON FRIENDS......
A friend is something you choose,
Something you hate to lose.
Secrets are always kept,
and promises met.
When you knocked down,
They always there to pick you up off the ground.
When you sad
they make the good out of the bad.
When there is something wrong
They always there with a special song
You're always together
For now and forever!!!!!
***********************************************
Sorry that last Friday i could not sit and write as i always do
i had a bad vertigo attack and had to stay off work......

It meant so much to me..... it touches my heart and soul to know that out there someone knows how i feel and PEOPLE are so wondeful and caring!!!!!!!
I am SO GRATEFUL to EACH and EVERYONE of you may GOD

And from me your friend
THank you and have a peaceful and blessed weekend and week.
******************** ************************ **
MOTHER'S PRAYER
God, hold my Daughter's hand just a little while longer, while her Mother's love grows so much stronger. When it's time for me to leave this land, Please God, give me back my loving Daughter's hand. To have, to hold, to cherish with all of my heart, give us a second chance, with a brand new start.... In Jesus Name, Amen.
