Jennifer, you know that I understand your feelings & the pain you are going through. It is hard to accept that our child, or grandchild has gone before us. Be strong, take one day at a time & remember the good years & the good times you had with him. ((((((((((BIG HUG)))))))))))))))))))))) This is the poem that helped us: THE LENT CHILD I'll lend you for a little time, A child of mine He said, For you to love while he lives, and mourn when he's is dead. It may be six or seven years, or twenty-two or three. But will you till I call him back take care of him for me? He'll bring his charms to gladden you, and shall his stay be brief, You'll have his lovely memories as solace for your grief. I cannot promise he will stay, since all from earth return. But there are lessons taught down there I want this child to learn. I've looked the wide world over in my search for teachers true, And from the throngs that crowd lifes lanes, I have selected you. Now will you give him all your love, nor think the labor vain, Nor hate me when I come to call to take him back again? I fancied that I heard them say, Dear Lord, Thy will be done. For all the joy thy child shall bring, the risk of grief we'll run. We'll shelter him with tenderness, we'll love himwhile we may, and for the happiness we've known, will ever grateful stay. But shall the angels call for him much sooner than we planned, We'll brave the bitter grief that comes and try to understand. (((((((((((AN EVEN BIGGER HUG)))))))))))))))))))))))))

Isn't it just Jennifer? So very hard. It's much worse for you losing a child, even having lost my lovely Mum, I still can't begin to imagine how you must be feeling. Love Mandy x

Big ((hugs)) for you Jennifer and anyone else that feels the need... Missing my Mum, Dad and Brother tonight...some very sad memories came back for me today...as all the furniture has been collected from Dads and gone to be crushed...I remember their bedroom suite, must have cost them a fortune at the time, had all our teething marks on Mum and Dads bed, Mum would always point them out to me...remember so clearly being in my cot and looking at the wardrobe doors, the grain had a face in it and it was a bit scary but safe 'cos it was Mum and Dads wardrobe...and the huge dressing table with huge draws, large mirror and hidey holes and smelt strongly of mothballs! End of an era...all gone now, makes me feel sad... Nanna-Moo xxx

Jennifer, (((((( hugs ))))) Cant even begin to understand the feelings that someone who has lost a child must go through. My sister lost her daughter and it is difficult for us to understand as much as we try, it has been 12 years now and although time is a great healer, she will never fully recover from such a tragic loss. I am missing my nan, my grandad, my step dad, my best friend and of course my darling niece..... i love you all... sleep well xxx Sharon xxx
