the best nanna ever, i miss you x

nanna, i miss you more than you could ever imagine. you were always so brave, even towards the end you was still trying to be your old stubborn self. it was hard to see you going from such a strong and independant woman to having to rely on everyone else to do things for you. i know you tried to hold on until my 18th birthday but you passed away exactly a week before, you even woke up and looked at us to check we were all there like we promised to be. a month after you died on what wouldve been your 67th birthday i found out i was pregnant with my daughter leah, ever since she was born i've felt you checking up on me every now and again. shes 19 months old now and very cheeky, its funny coz when i look at her i can see that she is alot like you. its such a shame that you both never got to meet coz i know you wouldve loved each other so much, just like me and you. i miss you every day and even though i know your watching over me its not the same as being able to sit and have a natter like we used to. i wish you could be at my wedding to see me get married and i know that in some form you will be. you were the best nanna anyone could ask for. mum is so much like you without realising it, so we still have a part of you here. i know mum really misses you too. anyway i love you forever and always nanna, love toni xxxx

R.I.P

I never got to meet you Wyn but from what I've heard from your family you were a kind and nice person and will be greatly missed. All the stories I've heard about your good times put a smile on my face. I'm sad I didn't get to meet you, God Bless, Louise x

Keep Strong

To all of the family of Wyn, I send my deepest sympathy and my warmest wishes. I understand how hard it is to see someone you love suffer and slip away. Take heart from the fact that Wyn's suffering is over, and she is now at peace. someone left me this poem on my fathers site, and it seemed very appropriate to share it with you all.
Take Care.

Last night I had a crazy dream
A wish was granted just for me
It could be for anything
I didn't ask for money
Or a mansion in malibu
I simply wished, for one more day with you

One more day
One more time
One more sunset, maybe I'd be satisfied
But then again
I know what it would do
Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you

First thing I'd do, is pray for time to crawl
Then I'd unplug the telephone
And keep the TV off
I'd hold you every second
Say a million I love you's
That's what I'd do, with one more day with you

One more day
One more time
One more sunset, maybe I'd be satisfied
But then again
I know what it would do
Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you

Leave me wishing still, for one more day
Leave me wishing still, for one more day

a letter from heaven

TO my dearest family,

some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.

I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.

Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.



Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.

Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.

That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,

God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."



It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.

As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.

I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.

There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."



God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.

And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.

And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.

God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.



When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years

because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.

But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.

Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.



I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.

But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.

But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.

I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.



There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;

but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.

It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...

that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.



If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,

then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."

And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,

knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.



So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,

just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.

When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;

I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.



And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,

remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
