Our darling daughter Zara was born at 5:53am on a bright and beautiful Saturday morning on the 1st
July 2006. She lived for 37 minutes.
Our only child, she was a miracle of conception and a gift from God, and I miss her very much.
She was born prematurely, after induction, at 25 weeks due to my developing Pancreatitis and Liver
abnormalities. She weighed 1lb 7oz and was 28 cms tall.
I had an extremely hard pregnancy. I have endometriosis and had a laparoscopy on the 1st February
2006, to clear my tubes in readiness for IVF. I developed a post-op infection and was admitted back
into hospital for observation, where I found out I was pregnant and shouldn`t have had the
laparoscopy. How she survived it is a miracle.
I had a pretty normal pregnancy up to my 17th week, when my waters broke for the 1st time. I was
told that she was unlikely to go any further than a week, but she held on, stubborn just like her
mum. I was in and out of hospital for the next 5 weeks with bleeds and at my 22nd week my waters
broke for the last time. I was admitted to hospital again and told that in all likelyhood I would
go into labour that night. I didn`t.
She had proved them wrong again.
I went home still in shock with the news that none of the OB doctors had ever had a pregnancy last
so long without waters, nearly 2 full months, full of hope that maybe just maybe she would make it,
but our joy was short lived. I developed Pancreatitis at 25 weeks due to the post op infection not
being treated correctly and had to be induced.
My labour was only 5 + 1/2 hours long and she was finally born, double breech, at 5:53am on the 1st
July 2006. We refused resus knowing that she had no chance of survival and I wanted her to die
without pain. She lived for 37 minutes.
She looked so beautiful and at peace and so much like her daddy. She will always be our beautiful
daughter, a true daddies girl and so badly missed by all her family.
We will always be filled with pride in knowing how hard she fought to be here with us and she will
always be our precious angel.
We would like to thank all our friends and family who have helped us through this devastating time
especially our mums, Thanks Mums we love you XX. Seni cok seviyorum anne XX
The greatest thanks to all the Midwifery/OB and Paeds resus staff of Perth Royal Infirmary &
Ninewells Hospital Dundee, and especially Dr Adam Gordon without whom we would never have had the
chance to have been graced with Zara at all.
Thanks also to the Rev Jim Stewart of Letham St Marks Church Perth, for the very beautiful service
he gave for Zara, and for the hospital visit which he gave me (Thanks Jim).
I give you this one thought to keep,
I am with you still I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am diamond glints upon the snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush.
Of Quiet birds in circled flight,
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not think of me as gone,
I am with you still in each new dawn.
O Allah! Grant protection to our living and to our dead and to those of us who are present and those
who are absent, and to our young and to our old folk and to our males and to our females.
O Allah! make her a cause of recompense for us and make her a treasure for us on the day of
Resurrection and an intercessor and the one whose intercession is accepted.
For my baby girl XX
My precious little baby girl,
Three years have now all passed,
The pain i have though fades each day,
The pride and love will last,
I am a mum, you are my child,
My imagination it runs free,
I see the things as you grow up,
But not too much like me !,
I really hope you dont turn out,
Too stubborn like your mum,
Or drive your nanna and pappa mad,
By sooking on your thumb,
Or when aged 5 you finally,
Get to go to school,
Please study hard and get good grades,
Dont ever play the fool,
And as thirteen comes around,
A teenager at last,
The sarky voice, the huffy moods,
The joys, the tears the laughs,
The first boyfriend you dare bring home,
To meet the family,
Your uncles all just sitting there,
They did the same to me !,
Its time for you to leave our home,
To go get your degree,
I hope you study english baby,
Be a teacher like daddy and me,
A young lady all big brown eyes,
As smart as smart can be,
And happy too with all your life,
So kind, and funny and free,
Your wedding day it comes to me,
You're beautiful in your dress,
The man you chose, he loves you truly,
In your vows the love expressed,
I see you with your newborn son,
My joy to be a nanna,
His honey eyes, and olive skin,
Just like his dear old pappa,
And time will tell if all i hope,
Really did come true,
If god in his great wisdom,
Gave all i wished to you..
A Birthday In Heaven - Author Unknown
I heard you crying yesterday,
And felt your heart-sent love.
So I’m sending you this message
Now, from Heaven up above.
You’re wondering if I’ll celebrate
My birthday (way up here).
I know you’re missing me today
I feel your essence near.
God planned a special day for me,
He told me with a wink.
He’d ordered me a special cake
(It’s Angel food, I think).
Balloons will fill the streets for me,
They float up through the clouds.
And we have lots of friends up here
That make us laugh out loud.
There is a birthday carousel,
Jewelled horses ride the wind,
With music playing, oh so sweet…
The magic never ends.
I’ve made so many friends, you see
We laugh and play and sing.
We ride our bikes and play the fool
And sleep in Angel’s wings.
But we don’t blow out our candles here
Instead, they light the skies.
With love from your little Angel xxx
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU

YOUR SPECIAL ANGEL
I AM YOUR SPECIAL ANGEL
ON ORDERS FROM ABOVE
TO SEE THAT AS A CHILD OF GOD
YOU RECEIVE SOME SPECIAL LOVE
GOD SENT ME DOWN TO FIND YOU
AND KNEW EXACTLY WHERE TO LOOK
FOR YOUR NAME IS WRITTEN DOWN
IN GODS BIG ADDRESS BOOK
(SENT WITH ALL MY LOVE FROM MICHAEL)
My Castle In The Sky
Can you see my castle
Up here in the sky
Its got big gold gates
That sparkle in my eyes
Can you see my garden
Its full of red flowers
And they smell beautiful
They hold magic powers
I have many new friends
That are all like me
They too are an angel
Flying high and free
They watch over families
That like me left behind
And send them angel kisses
They are friends hard to find
I’m glad I am in heaven
And that I am at peace today
Yes I miss my family dear
But I had to go away
God picked me from many
And said that I am one of the best
And I had completed my life’s journey
And that I had past all the test
So I deserve this castle
That god gave to me
And one day if your lucky
This castle you will see.
All my Love from Michael xxxxxxx
TEARS
Have you ever lost someone you loved who was very dear to you?
One who you loved so much and miss them like I do,
Have you ever had a headache too painful to bear?
And shed those bitter tears that fall like the rain,
If you never had that feeling,
I'll pray you never do,
For when God takes the ones you love,
He takes a part of you.
Create an ever lasting memorial for your loved ones.
