Elliott was our first baby - born on 26th March 2002 at Leicester Royal Infirmary. Having lost my Mum 13 days earlier, Elliott was the light of our lives and gave us a reason to carry on.

He was a lovely little boy with a cheeky smile and he was very good.

On one of his check ups, it was identified that he had problems with his sight. It was discovered that he had cataracts in both eyes and he had two operations to remove these. He had to wear contact lenses from the age of 7 months. Whilst this must have been difficult for him, he was as good as gold whenever we put in his lenses and took them out each evening. At the same time, we realised that he was behind in his development milestones.

In early January 2003, Elliott had an epileptic fit. He was admitted to hospital and doctors struggled to stop the fitting. He was eventually given a strong drug, that induced a deep sleep. Doctors said that he would come round after 4 or so days, which would hopefully stop the fits. He was actually in a deep sleep for almost 2 weeks.

The doctors and nurses in the childrens Intensive Car Unit at Leicester Royal Infirmary were brilliant, but no-one could identify what was happening to our precious little boy. He had several scans and at the final scan, it appeared that there was a shrinkage to his brain. At times he appeared to be getting better, but then there would be setbacks - he caught MRSA at one point and there were several occasions, when we nearly lost him.

In the end the doctors, said that there was nothing nore that could be done and we were advised to let them turn off the life support machine. It was the hardest decision that any parent could ever make, but we had no option, as we had already lost our little boy. The machine was turned off at 5pm on 16th March and everyone expected that Elliott would become an angel very soon afterwards. However, he battled on and in the end, he went to join his Granny Annie at 1pm on 19th March 2003 - 1 week before his first birthday.

We will never know what was wrong with our little boy. Since then, we have been blessed with a beautiful little girl Keira. Every night, we look up to the sky and wave to our little Elliott - the biggest and brightest star in the sky.

We will always love you darling Elliott - there is not a day goes by, without us thinking of you and remembering what a special little boy you were.

Love you always darling

Wish Upon A Star - by Unknown Author

If I could wish upon a star,
I would wish for you back here.
I know you’re happy where you are,
But I miss you, and want you near.

Although I see you everyday,
In my thoughts and in my dreams.
I miss you more than words can say,
It just gets worse, it seems.

I try to be strong for others around,
But all I want to do is cry.
I just sit for hours by myself,
And ask the question “Why?”

It’s the strongest pain, I’ve ever felt.
I don’t think I could describe it.
Although I try, I do my best,
I don’t think that I can hide it.

My life will never be the same,
That’s why it’s hard to bear,
Because since the day you left us,
I think that life’s not fair.

Some things seem not to matter now,
Even things that mattered before,
You have no idea, what I would give,
To make this pain less sore.

People say we’ll meet again,
And yes, I know, that’s true,
But I wish it didn’t have to be this way,
Because you know how much I miss you.

I love you with all my heart and more!

♥ ღ ♥ There’s a playground up in Heaven ♥ ღ ♥

♥ ღ ♥
There’s a playground up in Heaven
Where all the children go
It’s a place that’s full of laughter
Unlike this world here below
There’s a playground up in Heaven
Where all our angels play
And the hearts there are so happy
Unlike our hearts feel today
There’s a garden up in Heaven
Where the roses blossom still
While below it feels like winter
All the angels feel no chill
In that garden up in Heaven
You will never find a tear
How we wish we could be with them
Or we still had them down here
There’s no crying in that playground
Just their happy faces there
There’s no pain and there’s no heartache
There’s no illness or despair
They’re too busy with their playing
They’re too happy making friend
They don’t question why they’re up there
They don’t ask for anything
All our children play together
In that playground in the sky.

Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there, I did not die.

xxxxx
