Found on the internet
From the heart of a bereaved Mother...
This is Now by Unknown
Normal is having tears waiting behind every smile when you realise someone important is missing from
all the important events in your family's life.
Normal for me is trying to decide what to take to the cemetery for Birthdays Christmas,
Thanksgiving, New Years, Valentine's Day, July 4th and Easter.
Normal is feeling like you know how to act and are more comfortable with a funeral than a wedding or
birthday party...yet feeling a stab of pain in your heart when you smell the flowers and see the
casket.
Normal is feeling like you can't sit another minute without getting up and screaming, because you
just don't like to sit through anything.
Normal is not sleeping very well because a thousand what if's & why didn't I's go through your head
constantly.
Normal is reliving that day continuously through your eyes and mind, holding your head to make it go
away.
Normal is having the TV on the minute I walk into the house to have noise, because the silence is
deafening.
Normal is staring at every child who looks like he is my child's age. And then thinking of the age
he would be now and not being able to imagine it. Then wondering why it is even important to imagine
it, because it will never happen.
Normal is every happy event in my life always being backed up with sadness lurking close behind,
because of the hole in my heart.
Normal is telling the story of your child's death as if it were an everyday, commonplace activity,
and then seeing the horror in someone's eyes at how awful it sounds. And yet realising it has become
a part of my "normal".
Normal is each year coming up with the difficult task of how to honour your child's memory and his
birthday and survive these days. And trying to find the balloon or flag that fits the occasion.
Happy Birthday? Not really.
Normal is my heart warming and yet sinking at the sight of something special my child loved.
Thinking how he would love it, but how he is not here to enjoy it.
Normal is having some people afraid to mention my child.
Normal is making sure that others remember him.
Normal is after the funeral is over everyone else goes on with their lives, but we continue to
grieve our loss forever.
Normal is weeks, months, and years after the initial shock, the grieving gets worse sometimes, not
better.
Normal is not listening to people compare anything in their life to this loss, unless they too have
lost a child. NOTHING. Even if your child is in the remotest part of the earth away from you - it
doesn't compare. Losing a parent is horrible, but having to bury your own child is unnatural.
Normal is taking pills, and trying not to cry all day, because I know my mental health depends on
it.
Normal is realising I do cry everyday.
Normal is disliking jokes about death or funerals, bodies being referred to as cadavers, when you
know they were once someone's loved one.
Normal is being impatient with everything and everyone, but someone stricken with grief over the
loss of your child.
Normal is sitting at the computer crying, sharing how you feel with chat buddies who have also lost
a child.
Normal is feeling a common bond with friends on the computer in England, Australia, Canada, the
Netherlands and all over the USA, but yet never having met any of them face to face.
Normal is a new friendship with another grieving mother, talking and crying together over our
children and our new lives.
Normal is not listening to people make excuses for God. "God may have done this because..." I love
God, I know that my child is in heaven, but hearing people trying to think up excuses as to why
healthy children were taken from this earth is not appreciated and makes absolutely no sense to this
grieving mother.
Normal is being too tired to care if you paid the bills, cleaned the house, did laundry or if there
is any food.
Normal is wondering this time whether you are going to say you have four children or three, because
you will never see this person again and it is not worth explaining that my child is in heaven. And
yet when you say you have three children to avoid that problem, you feel horrible as if you have
betrayed your child.
Normal is avoiding McDonald's and Burger King playgrounds because of happy children that break your
heart when you see them.
Normal is asking God why he took your child's life instead of yours and asking if there even is a
God.
Normal is knowing I will never get over this loss, in a day or a million years.
And last of all, Normal is hiding all the things that have become "normal" for you to feel, so that
everyone around you will think that you are "normal".

We wish that we could say,
We're going to see our Kit today
To hear his voice and see his smile
To sit and talk with him for a while.
The hardest thing in life to bear
Is to want our boy and he's not there.
♥ღ♥ Our Beautiful Son ♥ღ♥
Once upon a time
a beautiful son was born, unto his Dad and me;
He brought so much joy and love
till his death at the age of only twenty three.
Our hearts remain so heavy
since that day when he died;
We know it’s weighted with more tears
that we have yet to cry.
Outwardly, we're moving along;
you say, 'That’s good to see'.
But you don’t know about the quiet times
when we're alone, his Dad and me.
We think about his passing,
how we’ll never be the same
Sorrow is a part of our lives,
it enters daily as we whisper Kits name.
Oh yes, we smile, we laugh,
and we go about our work each day
As we carry on with our lives
in a façade kind of way.
For behind the outward appearance,
way down deep inside our souls
Is the pain that’s with us always,
for the child we long to hold.
One day passes another,
the years will continue on
We’ve had days of smiles and laughter,
but in our silence it’s him we reflect on.
We're not the people that we once knew,
We changed almost two years ago,
When life showed us such suffering
and pain no one should ever know.
Yes, once upon a time,
a beautiful son was born, unto his Dad and me,
And we thought we’d live happily ever after,
but we can’t...
For what we want most can never, ever be.
★ •:*★ Love from Mam ★ •:*★
Kit stole my heart from the first moment I placed him on my chest, when he was born, until the last
agonising time I held him in the Chapel of Rest.
He has taken the 'completeness' of my heart with him and one day I expect him to give it back to me
and make me whole again.
I have asked his Grandma and Grandad to look after him until that glorious day.
For eternity I've got your face painted on my heart; scrawled upon my soul; etched upon my memory.
I love you my darlin' son, sleep tight.
★ •:*★ ★ •:*★ ★ •:*★ ★ •:*★ ★ •:*★ ★ •:*★
♥ Important To Me! ♥
I'm so lost without you
My life is blown apart.
Perhaps if I just tell you
Of what I feel in my heart.
Raw grief has gnawed a hole
That cannot ever be filled.
And no-one knows my prayers at night
Never can be fulfilled
The love I have for you
Til the day I breathe my last
Overflows with tears and
Memories of the past.
Evermore your Mam.
By DJD
Nightmare 30-6-09
When I awake every morning you aren’t there
I can’t give you a cuddle or ruffle your hair.
My days of joy are over
I have a broken heart
Guilt and pain take root
Agony now starts
I live this awful nightmare
Every day when I awake
I have to feel your loss
With every breath I take
Memories sustain me
But cause me constant pain
I live this awful nightmare
Until we meet again

Music always played an important part in Kits life...as well as the rest of our family's. There were
many, many precious songs to choose from to put on here but we are allowed only 3 and have chosen
these for the following reasons.

TIME OF YOUR LIFE BY GREEN DAY.
Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial
For what it's worth it was worth all the while
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

HURT BY JOHNNY CASH.
I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that\'s real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything
What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here
What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

[Kit and I loved this next song and used to dance wildly round the room whenever it came on. I
remember dancing, with him, in the aisles of a supermarket to this once.
He always sang 'Brown eyed girl' to me and I sang 'Brown eyed boy' to him.]
BROWN EYED GIRL BY VAN MORRISON.
Hey where did we go, days when the rains came?
Down in the hollow, playin' a new game
Laughing and a running hey, hey!
Skipping and a jumping
In the misty morning fog with our hearts a thumpin' and you ...
My brown eyed girl
You, my brown eyed girl
Whatever happened Tuesday and so slow?
Going down the old mine with a transistor radio
Standing in the sunlight laughing, hiding behind a rainbo's wall
Slipping and sliding, all along the water fall, with you ...
My brown eyed girl
You, my brown eyed girl
Do you remember when we used to sing?
Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da
Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da
... la te da
So hard to find my way, now that I\'m all on my own
I saw you just the other day, my, how you have grown!
Cast my memory back there, Lord,
sometimes I\'m overcome thinking \'bout
laughing and a running hey, hey!
Behind the stadium with you ...
My brown eyed girl
You, my brown eyed girl
Do you remember when we used to sing?
Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da
Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da
Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da
... la te da

FOR MONDAY
Always a smile, instead of a frown,
Always a hand, when one is down,
Always true, thoughtful and kind,
Wonderful memories they left behind.
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR TUESDAY
Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed, and very dear.
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR WEDNESDAY
Although we smile and make no fuss,
No one misses them more than us;
And when old times we oft recall,
That's when we miss them most of all.
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR THURSDAY
Every tear is a prism through which I see,
A rainbow of emotions and memories,
Though fate has led you to another place,
True moments hold meaning time can never erase.
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR FRIDAY
In tears we saw you sinking,
We watched you fade away,
Our hearts were almost broken,
You fought so hard to stay,
But when we saw you sleeping,
So peacefully free from pain,
We could not wish you back,
To suffer that again.
It's lonely here without you,
We miss you more each day,
For life is not the same to us,
Since you were called away.
To your resting place we visit,
Place flowers there with care,
But no one knows our heartache,
When we turn and leave you there
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR SATURDAY
We often think of bygone days,
When we were all together,
The family chain is broken now,
But memories will live forever,
To us, you have not gone away,
Nor has you travelled far,
Just entered God's eternal home,
And left the gate ajar.
If we had all the world to give,
We'd give it, yes, and more,
To hear his voice, see his smile,
And greet him at the door.
But all we can do, ,
Is go and tend your grave,
And leave behind tokens of love,
To the best loved one God made.
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR SUNDAY
Though your smile is gone forever,
And your hand we cannot touch,
Still we have so many memories,
Of the ones we loved so much.
Your memory is our keepsake,
With which we'll never part,
God has you in His keeping,
We have you in our hearts.
It’s so strange that those we need
And those we love the best,
Are just the ones God called away
And took them home to rest,
But every time I think of you,
I seem to hear God say,
Have faith and trust my promise
You’ll meet again some day.

Tears in Heaven
Would you know my name
if I saw you in heaven
Would it be the same
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong and carry on
'Cos I know I don't belong
Here in heaven
Time can bring you down
Time can bend your knees
Time can break your heart
Have you begging please
Begging please
Beyond the door
There's a peace I'm sure
And I know
There'll be no more
Tears in heaven
Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven
Would it be the same
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong and carry on
'Cos I know I don't belong
Here in heaven.

The Pit of Grief
The day my child died, I fell into the pit of grief. My friends watched me struggle through daily life; waiting for the person I once was to arise from the pit, not realizing 'she' is gone forever.
The pit is full of darkness, heartache and despair; it paralyzes your thoughts, movements and ability to ration. The pit leaves you forever changed, unable to surface the person you once were.
Some of my pre-grief friends gather around the top of the pit, waiting for the old me to appear before their eyes, not understanding what’s taking me so long to emerge. After all, in their eyes, I’ve been in the pit for quite sometime. Yet in my eyes, it seems as if I fell in only yesterday.
Not all of my pre-grief friends are gathered around the top of the pit. Some are helping me with the climb out of the darkness. They climb side by side with me from time to time, but mostly they climb ahead of me, waiting patiently at each plateau. Even with these friends I sometimes wonder if they are also waiting for the pre-grief me to magically appear before their eyes.
Then there are the casual acquaintances, you know the ones who say 'Hi, how are you?' when they really don't care or really want to know. These are the people who sigh in relief, that is my child who died and not theirs. You know ... the 'better them, than me' attitude.
My post-grief friends are the ones who climb with me, side by side, inch by inch, out of the pit of grief. They have no way of comparing the pit climbed to the pre-grief person I once was. You see, they started at the bottom of the pit with me. They are able to reassure me when I need reassurance, rest when I need resting, and encourage me to move forward when I don't have the strength. They have no expectations, no memories and no recollection of how I 'should' be. They want me to get better, to smile more often and find joy in life, but they also accepted the person I’ve become. The 'person' who is emerging from the pit.

In words of wisdom we still carry with us
And memories that never will be gone...
Those we love are never really lost to us -
For everywhere their special love lives on.

Please pick a bunch for me.

and tell them they're from me.
Tell them I love and miss them,

Place a kiss upon their cheeks
And hold them for a while.
Because remembering them is easy,
I do it everyday,
But there is an ache within my heart
That will never go away.

Still With Us
Do not stand by my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow;
I am a diamond glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain;
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awake in the morning hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft star shine at night.
Do not stand by my grave and cry.
I am not there...I DID NOT DIE.

Tributes For This Weekend
FOR FRIDAY 28TH AUGUST
Good Bye
I know my time has ended,
Its time for me to leave.
I want you all to know,
You mean so much to me.
Why I had to go,
Was a mystery to me.
All I heard was God,
Saying “ Please come home to me.”
So I left my friends and family,
I didn’t say goodbye.
All I got to see,
Were the tears in their eyes.
But as I saw them crying,
I asked them not to grieve.
Knowing how much we care,
That our love will never cease.
You can look up at the sky,
And look over to the sea.
When you feel that gentle breeze,
You always think of me.
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR SATURDAY
If I Had One Last Day
If I had one last day
To tell you what's inside
I'd tell you that I'm sorry
For all the times I've lied
I'd tell you that I need you
To hold my hand today
I'd tell you that I love you
I'd ask you, please, to stay
You'd look at me and smile
The way you always would
And say "I'd love to stay,
If only I really could"
Then you'd laugh the way you did
Whenever I was blue
You'd wipe my tears and whisper softly,
"Don't cry, I love you too"
If I had one last day
I'd love you from the start
I'd stop hiding how I feel
I'd say what's in my heart
If I had one last day,
I'd say my last good-bye
And that even though you are far away,
In my heart, you'll never die.

FOR SUNDAY
Letter From Heaven For My Family........
When tomorrow starts without me,
And I'm not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes,
All filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry,
The way you did today,
While thinking of the many things,
We didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too;
But when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand,
That an Angel came and called my name,
And took me by the hand,
And said my place was ready,
In heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind,
All those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye,
For all life, I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for,
So much yet to do,
It seemed almost impossible,
That I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays,
The good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared,
And all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday,
Just even for awhile,
I'd say goodbye and kiss you
And maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized,
That this could never be,
For emptiness and memories,
Would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
My heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me,
From His great golden throne,
He said, "This is eternity,
And all I've promised you".
Today for life on earth is past,
But here it starts anew.

FOR MONDAY 24TH AUGUST
We can't have old days back,
When we were all together,
But secret tears and loving thoughts,
Will be with us forever.
FOR TUESDAY
If we could have one lifetime wish,
One dream that could come true,
We'd ask with all our hearts,
For yesterday and you.
FOR WEDNESDAY
Just a thought of sweet remembrance,
Just a memory, sad and true;
Just the love and sweet devotion,
Of the one who thinks of you.
FOR THURSDAY
No hand so soft and gentle
No heart so tender, true

Tributes For This Weekend
FOR FRIDAY 21ST AUGUST
Grief Is Like A River
My grief is like a river,
I have to let it flow,
But I myself determine
Just where the banks will go.
Some days the current takes me
In waves of guilt and pain,
But there are always quiet pools
Where I can rest again,
I crash on rocks of anger,
My faith seems faint indeed,
But there are other swimmers
Who know that what I need
Are loving hands to hold me
When waters are to swift,
And someone kind to listen
When I just seem to drift.
Grief's river is a process
Of relinquishing the past,
By swimming in Hope's channels,
I'll reach the shore at last.

FOR SATURDAY
To Those I Love And Those Who Love Me
When I'm gone, release me, let me go;
I have so many things to see and do.
Don't tie yourself to me with tears.
Be happy that we had so many years.
I gave you love.
You can only guess how much that
You gave me in happiness.
I thank you for your love you each have shown.
But it is time I travel alone.
So grieve a while for me, grieve you must;
Then let your grief be comfort by trust.
It's only for a little while we must part.
So bless the memories within your heart.
I won't be far away, for life goes on.
So if you need me, call and I'll come.
Though you can't see or touch me, I'll be near.
If you listen with your heart, you'll hear
All my love around you soft and clear.
And then when you must come this way alone,
I will greet you with a smile and a
"Welcome Home!"

FOR SUNDAY
Tears
Tears are delightful expressions
Of happiness, sorrow, and love,
Made to release deep emotions,
A special gift sent from above.
When seeing sweet thoughts of a loved one
Midst memories of days of old,
A tear finds a cheek in the moonlight
As thoughts reach deep in the soul.
In moments of anger, frustrations and grief,
When happy thoughts flee like a thief,
Running away with our hopes and our cares,
A tear brings welcome relief.
If unwanted sorrow consumes us
And life seems so hard to bear,
With time a soul is healed,
Restored with the help of a tear.
Sun and beauty bring health to the soul
Through all of the days of our lives,
Deepest feelings of thanks are expressed
Through tears which appear in our eyes.
Be grateful for tears for their presence
Restores our most glorious thoughts
Of laughter, compassion and loving,
The most precious gifts of all.
