Our beautiful baby boy Daniel was born sleeping on 9th June 2009. I was 36 weeks pregnant and had
had the perfect pregnancy so far with no sickness or problems and all tests had been clear. I was
due for a scan monday 8th June to check your position as the midwife thought you were the wrong way
round when I heard those devastating words that I will never forget. The sonographer checked the
monitor then spoke "Im sorry there is no heartbeat".

In that short space of time my whole world stopped. I looked at my mums face who was with me and saw
how devastated she was, we couldn't belive what we heard and both broke down crying. From behind the
tears I then had to break the news to your daddy that I had lost his baby, while my mum told my dad.


We had to face going through labour knowing that we would never hear you cry, and you were born on
Tuesday night at 11.40pm weighing 3lbs 8ounces. You were perfect in everyway. We had a naming and
blessing service for you while I held you in my arms before i was taken for surgery due to
complications. During my surgery the pain was worse than labour but thoughts of you kept me going
knowing that I needed to be back with you to hold you and to love you. My mum, dad and your daddy
was waiting for me when i came out of the life saving surgery and have been fantastic in supporting
and caring for me.
The staff at the hospital too were so supportive and kind to you and all my family.

I never thought we would be leaving hospital without my baby in my arms instead we carried a little
'forget me not' box full of memories of you.

On the 22nd June at 2pm we held the funeral for you and seeing your little white and silver coffin
was heartbreaking.
We all love and miss you so much, you will always be in our hearts.



For Daniel Joseph

When I found out I had got you
I knew I would love you from the start
My heart grew fonder each day
Along with you beating heart

I loved seeing you inside
And watching you move around
And listening to your heartbeat
Was such a gorgeous sound

And now all our planning has gone astray
And our world has fallen apart
My little baby’s gone away
As quick as the beating of your heart

And now all the tears we cry
Can never bring you back to me
I know your safe in heaven
An angel you will be

For the pain we now feel
It will never go away
I can’t wait to hold you in my arms again
But wait I must and pray

It broke our hearts to loose you
But you didn’t go alone
Part of us went with you
The day God took you home

My Dear Family

It's me again from Heaven
With a message from above
Feel my spirit all around you
As I sprinkle you with love...

***********

I have watched you, as your tears flow
I have heard your silent screams
I know you sleep with visions
Of me visiting your dreams...

***********

I have come and sat beside you
Placed my hands upon your face
Wiped away the many teardrops
I so wish I could erase...

***********

I have watched you every day now
Seen such pain within your eyes
I just wish that there were some way
I could help you realise...

***********

I am happy up in Heaven
In this peaceful loving place
Where I will be here waiting
To welcome you with my embrace...

***********

You will join me here in Heaven
When your time comes you’ll see
Leave your Earthly cares behind you
Travel on to where you’re free...

**********

I have heard you ask to go now
But there is more for you to do
I promise I'll be waiting
When your time on earth is through ...

Angels called your name so gently,
That only you could hear.
No one heard the footsteps,
Of angels drawing near.

Softly from the shadows
There came a gentle call,
You closed your eyes and went to sleep,
And quietly left us all.

Sweet dreams precious son love you always x x x

An Angel Never Dies

Don't let them say I wasn't born,
But something stopped my heart
I felt each tender squeeze you gave,
I loved you from the start.

Although my body you can't hold,
It doesn't mean I'm gone,
This world was worthy not of me,
God chose that I move on.

I know the pain that drowns your soul,
What you are forced to face.
You have my word, I'll fill your arms,
Some day we will embrace.

You'll hear “that it was meant to be”
God doesn't make mistakes,
But that won't soften your worst blow,
Or make your heart not ache.

I'm watching over all you do,
Another child you'll bear,
Believe me when I say to you,
That I am always there.

There will come a time, I promise you,
When you will hold my hand,
Stroke my face, and kiss my lips,
And you'll understand.

Although I never breathed your air,
Or gazed into your eyes,
That doesn't mean I never “was”
An Angel never dies.

If roses grow in Heaven, Lord,
Please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in my baby's arms
And tell him they're from me.
Tell him that I love him,
And when he turns to smile,
Place a kiss upon his cheek
And hold him for a while.
Because remembering him is easy,
I do it every day
But there's a pain within my heart
That will never go away.
