Special Needs Teacher
Washington, Tyne & Wear
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
thinking on you
May I help you
The answer is no thank you
and then i say i am fine
When in reality my words are nothing more than lies
My heart is weary of trying to pretend that i am feeling cheery
Behind those laughing eyes
Lies pain on the face in whose falsehood lies
Broken hearts and broken dreams
A false facade hides in those unheard screams
Pain no one could ever imagine
Fights a fight that no one can ever win
May I help you? The clerk repeat
and again Isay no... as our eyes meet
Things are not okay nor will they ever be okay
Although every night and day in my heart I pray and pray
******************///////**********************
Crying to myself
Never asking for anything more
Not from the internet not from the store
Yet alone at night while i lay in bed
Thoughts of sadness play in my head.
Wanting for nothing expensive or bought
Peace and happiness is the only things sought
Tired of crying late through the night
Not wanting to argue not wanting to fight
Sitting at home for days without end
Wondering what happened to my child my best friend
Crying for hours as time passes by
Thinking to myself why do I cry?
Lost in a world full of worries and fears
Brings nothing but sadness depression and tears
Crying to myself seems to ease some of the pain
Yet, what does it do? What does it gain?
Please take away the worry, the pain and the grief
Give me a chance to get some needed relief
To sleep through the night without all this crying
The burdens to heavy, I feel like I'm dying.
Strength, love and courage try to keep me on track
THese I rely on to keep the weight off my back
Pretending and smiling is all that I can do
Crying to myself becuase of how I cant get over of losing you.....

For my Friend Kath
I know how difficult special occasions are, when we miss our loved ones, even more than usual. I do think of you often Kath - you missing your precious Louise. Me missing my parents and Zoe. I had a (leg) Cancer scare with my son a few weeks ago, and it made me appreciate even more, all you went through with Louise. How brave she was, how brave you were, and the rest of your loving family. I wish I could say more to be of a comfort. But words are only that. The same with candles and flowers. But I hope it does help that people out here, care for each other - through GTS. I will always care for you - always be your friend. Take care and hold onto the memories. Thinking of you always - Sarah x
THINKING OF YOU AT EASTER
IF ONLY CHILDREN WERE EASTER EGGS
HIDDEN SAFLEY IN THE GRASS
WE COULD SEARCH FOR THEM AND PICK THEM UP
AND HOLD THEM WITHIN OUR CLASP
WE'D HAVE A HEAVENLY EASTER EGG HUNT
ALL WITH BASKETS IN OUR HANDS
SEARCHING WITH A BROKEN HEART
ONLY WE CAN UNDERSTAND
Love to you this weekend Kath
Stay Strong
Love Margaret.xxx
BEATTITUDES FOR THOSE WHO COMFORT
Blessed are those who do not use tears to measure the true feelings of the bereaved
Blessed are those who don now always have a quick comforting answer
Blessed are those who do not make judgement on the bereaved's closeness to God by their reaction to the loss of their loved one
Bless are those who hear with their hearts and not with their minds
Blessed are those who allow the bereaved enough time to heal
Blessed are those who admit their uncomfortableness and put it aside to help the bereaved
Blessed are those who do not give unwanted advice
Blessed are those who know the worth of each person as a unique individual and do not pretend that they can be replaced or forgotten
Blessed are those who realise the fragility of bereavement and handle it with an understanding shoulder and a loving heart
Blessed are all MY GONE TO SOON FRIENDS I have made been blessed with....
To each and everyone of you - have a blessed peaceful weekend thinking on you.....
With love
Isabelle
from one mam to another mam
Why does the sun rise and give light
only to set again soon?
Why do stars twinkle so bright
only to pass away with the moon?
Why does a rainbow appear with colours to show
only to fade for no apparent reason?
Why does a flower take so long to grow
only to wilt during the winter season?
Why does snow fall so mysteriously and lay
only to change and then melt?
Why do people enter our lives along the way
only to leave us when they knew how we felt?
I guess no one will really know why, but god above
but we should be happy for all those creations
we had some time to know and to love...
Thinking Of You
The Moment That You Died
My Heart Was Torn In Two
One Side Filled With Heartache
And The Other Died With You
I Ofter Lay Awake At Night
When The World Is Fast Asleep
And Take A Walk Down Memory Lane
With Tears Upon My Cheeks
Remembering You Is Easy
I Do It Every Day
But Missing You Is A Heartache
That Never Goes Away
I Hold You Tightly Within My Heart
And There You Will Remain.......
♥ღ♥ Gone Only To Others by Ann Holloway ♥ღ♥
Others, who do not know,
Tiptoe around your name
Unaware that your name is silently
Written on my heart, my soul, my life
And inwardly I cry out to hear it spoken.
Others who do not know
Think of you as only in the past
And believe
That you only exist in my past too
Not understanding that you are
Past, Present, Future.
Others, who do not know,
Feel you as gone,
And fail to see the reality of you
Never being ‘truly’ gone from me.
The empty void of your absence
Is filled with your presence,
Your life will forever weave through mine
The divine bond cannot be severed.
Others who do not know,
Mistakenly may think that my love has been
Weakened by separation,
Feelings ceased,
Not so.
Entwined and strengthened
My love for you lives on
And has not died with death.
But you know all this,
If only others knew.

In February during the month of love...
She sends her hugs..on the wings of a dove...
And her kisses are blown to the moon above.
God bless the grieving mother...
In March and on St Patricks Day...
A beautiful rainbow...a symbol of hope...
Which colours her world..in a magical way.
God bless the grieving mother...
On Easter In April as she stops to pray...
Thanking God for the gift of everlasting life...
Knowing she will be reunited someday.
God bless the grieving mother...
On Mothers Day and thru the month of May...

For they will never tarnish....or go away.
God bless the Grieving mother...
In June as her tears fall like the rain...

In July as the fireworks light up the sky afar...
Just like her memories light up her heart...
And she wishes upon an evening star.
God bless the grieving mother...
In August...as the sun shines through...
Who's life moves on...thru ups and downs..
Whose heart is so tender and true.
God bless the grieving mother...
In September as the leaves turn and fall...
Her childs life forever etched in her heart..
Her childs name entered on the memorial wall.
God bless the grieving mother...
In October...with the harvest colours all around....
Please guide her on her journey of grief...
and keep her safe and sound.
God bless the grieving mother...
In November...a time to give thanks and pray...
Who is so thankful for each precious memory..
But wishes with all her heart...just for one more day

Month by month...
Year by year...
and especially today...on this Mother's day.

BAND OF MOTHERS 1st Mar 2008
mam
We are a band of Mother's
This life has torn apart,
Left to walk around each day
To carry our broken heart,
We are told this is for a reason
The reason we will never know,
Why were we chosen to have to
Let our children go,?
Our soul's are shattered
From our pain there's no relief,
We are A band of mothers
United in our grief.
