I am off to Canada on sunday and will be back on the 2nd of feb. I will still try to light candles
as and when i can while i'm out there.
If u light a candle for miles, would you be so kind to light a candle for his little sister chloe
sturgess and their cousin Marcus Holmes. Thankyou.
Miles Aaron Rawlins died on the 20th July 1988. He was 171/2 months old. Miles' problems began when
he was three days old, the first problem being that he didn't wake up or even cry. He was put into
intensive care, as he seemed really floppy, like a ragdoll and he couldn't suck from a bottle, so he
had to be tube fed. He weighed 8lb 6oz when he was born and only weighed 13lb 2oz when he died. he
was the size of a six month old. He had every test going, to try and find out what was causing the
problems, he had chest infection after chest infection and eventually died from bronchial pneumonia.
It was thirteen years after he died, i was told that he had Rett Syndrome like my daughter Chloe
Sturgess. In 1988 Rett Syndrome wasn't known about in this country.
Miles was a lot like Chloe, he was always very happy. He only ever cried twice in his life. He loved
to be around men and other children. He was also like Chloe in the way of he loved himself, he would
just stare at himself in the mirror for ages. Miles was a perfect baby, apart from all his problems.
Miles was my first baby, and to lose him was devastating. The worst thing of all was i didn't even
know what was wrong with him. I had to wait for seven years before i had another baby. That baby was
Chloe. I believed she was normal, but once she got to eight months old, thats when things started
going wrong. By the time she got to five, i knew that i had been here before, it was just happening
a lot slower. I was never able to move on from Miles because of Chloe having the same problems. Both
of these children were very loving and i hope that they are now both looking after each other.

MY LITTLE GARDEN
I have a little garden
No flowers will you find;
Instead you'll see the friendships
That I have made online.
They grow from something other
Than normal flowers do.
They thrive on love and support
And understanding too.
This special little garden;
No matter rain or shine,
Is always in bloom;
This special place of mine.
It's filled with fun and laughter;
Where happiness abounds.
This lovely garden echoes
Many joyful sound.
I would like for you to know
That you are planted here
In my 'Friendship Garden';
Our hearts are always near.

Sent Straight From Heaven
You were a gift sent straight from Heaven.
Given to us from God above.
We didn't know how much you would teach us
About the meaning of true love...
For true love sometimes means letting go
Of someone precious and dear.
That is what we were forced to do...
Although we wanted to keep you here!!!
However, this is quite a selfish wish.
One we know we should ignore...
But, we truly do believe
That God must have needed you more...
Perhaps to be an Angel now,
Full of wisdom and love...
Watching over those of us who love you
From the shining stars above.
We miss you more than you can know.
You will never be replaced...
In our hearts and memories forever,
Will be your sweet and innocent sleeping face.
Each time we see your picture
You seem to smile and say,
“Don’t cry, I’m in God’s hands,
We’ll meet again someday!”
♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥
“The Best”
God saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be.
So He put His arms around you
And He whispered “Come to Me”
With tearful eyes we watched you.
We watched you fade away.
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
Hard-working hands at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
He chose to take the best.
It’s lonesome here without you
We miss you more each day.
Life doesn’t seem the same
Since you have gone away.
When days are sad and lonely
And everything goes wrong,
We seem to hear you whisper
“Cheer Up and Carry On”

MOTHER AND CHILDS BOND
The Cord
We are connected, my child and I,
by an invisible cord not seen by the eye.
It's not like the cord that connected us 'till birth,
this cord can't be seen by anyone on earth.
This cord does its work, right from the start,
it bonds us together, attached at the heart.
I know that its there though no one can see,
the invisible cord, from my child to me.
The strength of this cord, it's hard to describe.
it can't be destroyed, it can't be denied.
It's stronger than any cord, man could create,
it withstands the tests, can hold any weight.
And though you are gone, not here with me,
the cord is still there, but no one can see.
It pulls at my heart, I am bruised....I am sore,
but this cord is my lifeline, as never before.
I am thankful that God connected this way,
a mother and a child, death can't take it away!
All my Love. Have a wonderful weekend. Love Gloria Anthony's Mom xoxo

THE GIFT OF MEMORY……
One gift, above all others
God gives to us to treasure
One that knows no time, no place
And one gold cannot measure
The precious, poignant tender gift
Of Memory...that will keep
Of dear ones ever in our hearts
Although God gives them sleep
It brings back long remembered things
A song, a word, a smile
And the world's a better place
...because
We had them for awhile!

So please do not worry, or put up a guard.
For I want you too see I am still here,
To keep you safe, and keep you near....
As an angel I want so much for you to know,
'How much I Love And Miss You So'
So if you see me, please do not hide,
I am the angel by your side...

Family Chain
We little knew that morning,
God was going to call your name,
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
You did not go alone.
For part of us went with you
The day God called you home.
You left us beautiful memories,
Your love is still our guide,
And though we cannot see you,
You are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again.

I PROMISE I WILL HEAR…..
Don't think of me as dead and gone
Please understand I have just moved on
God took my hand
When you thought I had died
And led me over to the other side.
There's a better life
Than the one we know
And to it one day we all must go
No more pain, hardship,
Or times of misery
Instead there's all our loved ones
As happy as can be.
You may not see me for a little while
Hear me laugh or see me smile
But I promise you with all my heart
From the ones I love I will never part.
I will always be with you,
However far you walk
I will always listen,
When you feel you need to talk
So when you are saddened
Or driven to despair
Take comfort from the knowledge
That I am always there.
One day soon I will share with you
The happiness I have found
And you will see life doesn't end
Six feet beneath the ground
Forget about graveside visits
And fresh flowers every day
A yearly verse in the papers
Is surely not the way
When there is something you want to say
Or you wish that I was near
Just talk to me like you always did
I promise I will hear.

SWEET LIL MILES
This day will be a celebration
of the short time you were here.
You will always be remembered
with great love and many tears.
But to only feel pain and sorrow
would not be fair to you.
Your life meant so much more to us,
more than words could say.
You were here so briefly,
I wonder if you knew
all the ways you’ve touched
our world and our hearts
and everyone who knew you
since the day God called you home.
Now my child, you’re an angel
with your heavenly Father above,
we see not only what we’ve lost
but our capacity of love.
There will always be a big void
in our life and a hole in our
hearts that will never heal.
Our souls will grieve forever.
Will we forget or stop loving you?
No! Not now…not ever.
As this day is upon us,
oh, how our hearts still hurt.
But even as I mourn your death,
we will always celebrate your birth.
It was the happiest day of our lives.

Tribute For This Weekend
A Special Angel
There's a special angel in heaven
That is a part of me
It is not where I wanted him
But where God wanted him to be
He was here but just a moment
Like a night time shooting star
And though he is in heaven
He isn't very far
He touched the heart of many
Like only and angel can do
I would've held him more often
If the end I only knew
So I send this special message
To the heavens up above
Please take care of my angel
And send him all my love
♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥
How I Feel
I don't know how to feel
It's all locked up inside,
The emptiness is waking
The tears are running dry.
Your the one who held me
Gave comfort when things went wrong,
What do I do without you
I feel my faith is gone.
My heart just doesn’t realise
That you are really gone.
A loss that came so suddenly
But will last my whole life long.
Our time just meant so much too me
I know it always will
The memories locked inside of me
Forever to hold on too
You told me that we'd be,
Together forever more
Part of each others lives
But now the door is closed.
Never too be opened
Kept locked on both sides now
Although you may have gone away
Your spirit will forever stay
♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥
My Life Changed
My Life changed, the very moment I found out
That you had passed away.
I couldn't stop it;
There was nothing I could say.
You've touched my life so deeply
To a point you will never know,
I try to think about you
When I am feeling down and low.
Sometimes when my day gets hard
I will think about your beautiful smile
And if I listen hard enough
I will hear your voice after a while.
It's you who give me a reason
To go on with my day,
And now if I want to see you
I'll bow my head and pray.
I catch myself looking for you still,
In the halls and at your front door,
But when I call your name
There is no reply any more!
I never thought a day would come
Where we would be apart,
God has you in his keepings,
We have you in our hearts.
Life will go on, but never will be the same,
Your beautiful smile is gone, but it will always remain.
You're our angel from up above.
You'll always be missed, but most importantly... loved.
Just one more minute,
God, is all I ask- why can't you give her back;
It seems like such a simple task.
I guess people are right
When they say God only takes the best,
I know enough now that you're peacefully at rest.
