Katie Amelia my first born. She was born on 24th May 1997. What a very special day that was! She was the most precious gift i had ever been given.
Katie was as bright as a button, cheeky in a cute kind of way and grew into a very cute toddler. She brought joy into my life to just watch her grow, playing with others and learning new skills by the day.
I had a very special bond with her, one that i can't explain. She was my whole world.
Mollie was born when Katie had just gone 2. They too had a very special bond and i was looking forward to seeing them grow up together as close as what they were.
Katie became poorly just before she started school in Heath Hayes at the age of 4. After taking her to the doctors on many occassions (being told i was paranoid) with suffering from headaches and vomitting, 6 months down the line she was diagnosed with having a Malignant brain tumour.
Katie battled through RadioTherapy, ChemoTherapy and several surgeries for 18 months.
She died at 11.05pm on the 14th July 2003 aged 6 years.
What a devistating day that was!
I’ll lend you for a little time
A child of Mine," He said.
"For you to love the while she lives,
And mourn for when she’s dead.
It may be six or seven years
Or twenty-two or three,
But will you, till I call her back
Take care of her for Me?
She’ll bring her charms to gladden you,
And should her stay be brief,
You’ll have her lovely memories
As solace for your grief.
I cannot promise she will stay,
Since all from Earth return,
But there are lessons taught down there
I want this child to learn.
I’ve looked this wide world over
In My search for teachers true,
And from the throngs that crowd life’s lanes,
I have selected you;
Now will you give her all your love,
Nor think the labour vain,
Nor hate Me when I come to call
And take her back again ?
I fancied that I heard them say,
"Dear Lord, Thy will be done,
For all the joy Thy child shall bring,
For the risk of grief we’ll run.
We’ll shelter her with tenderness,
We’ll love her while we may,
And for the happiness we’ve known,
Forever grateful stay.
But should the angels call for her
Much sooner then we planned,
We’ll brave the bitter grief that comes
And try to understand

My thoughts are with you...the pain of losing a child is like nothing ever experienced before. Some days will be better than others, some so bad that you just want to curl up and be with your little angel...stay strong for your other child, and remember that at some time in the future you will be reunited with Katie, but for now you must live life to the fullest, taking Katie with you on your travels. Keep smiling, if you can, because the world is a better place when you smile. Take care and stay safe...memories will keep you strong!
