Cairo was born on 17 August 2006 weighing a healthy 6 lbs exactly. He was born with a heart
condition called Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome, which means that only the right side of his heart
had developed completely during pregnancy. This is a very rare condition but since his diagnosis
when I was 23 weeks pregnant, we have met and spoken to many parents whose children have the same
condition.
This condition means that you have the following three options for your unborn child.
1 - Termination
2 - Let them be born and pass away naturally within a few days after birth.
3 - Three stage surgery.
We opted for choice 3 which meant he had to have three surgeries more than likely before he was 3 or
4, the first taking place during the first week of a child’s life. The second when he would have
been about six months old and the third when he was about two or three. Finally, he would have had
to have a heart transplant when he reached his teens. His first stage operation (Fontan) took
place when he was five days old. It was a successful operation, but sadly he passed away the
following day as his poor little heart just could not take it any more. Cairo has other brothers
and sisters whom miss him dearly and we speak about him everyday. His pictures are everywhere in
the house.
Just like our other children, he is the most precious person in our lives.
We will miss you forever and always Cairo, but we know that you are at peace now. Mummy xxxxxx

♥ A Shade of Sadness. ♥
In comes the darkness to my soul
even as I sit in the early morning sun,
the distant sounds of the living
seem far removed from the fogginess of my mind.
♥
In the stillness of the house
which seems quieter than quiet,
time seems to pass too slowly.
♥
A feeling of being outside myself
looking back into an empty shell
of the person I used to be.
♥
I cry for my former self.
That person I once liked and enjoyed.
She is gone.
A loss within a loss, within a loss.
♥
A heaviness in my heart,
the weight of a million tears.
Drowning my emotions,
mixing and swirling in a pool of despair.
Ugly hateful despair.
♥
A sadness so deep and heavy
leaving the body tired and used,
I feel I could sleep,
sleep for a thousand years and never wake up.
♥
A thousand years will not change a thing.
You would still not be here.
What to believe, I don't know.
I just don't know. My soul is lost.
♥
I know not which way to turn.
Where to look,
♥
I feel helpless,
helpless to help my self,
annoyed with the daily things of life I must do.
♥
I don't care, not anymore.
The world could fall upon it's knees
it would not matter,
I am too shrouded in the darkness of my world
that spins ever out of control,
directing my emotions
with no warning as to what feelings
will be brought upon me next.
♥
There is guilt, another weight to bear.
Those who are with me, who I love and love me,
they need me, but I am not ready.
I hold them back at arms length,
I am not ready,
their demands draw on what strength I have left.
For that I am sorry,
but I cannot help bringing on the emotional distance.
There is a need to protect myself,
but from what I am not sure.
♥
There is anger.
Anger that occasionally swells within me.
There is no direction into which to fling this anger.
It is a new and different type of anger
not one I am familiar with and it disturbs me.
It makes me afraid.
♥
I try to be strong. For you, and only you.
I try to think what you would have me do.
♥
I know you would want me to live my life.
To continue on. It is not an easy task, not at all.
♥
Some days I can go out
and meet the world with vigor and say I do this for you.
♥
Some days I must crawl into my shell
and hide from the world that has been so cruel to me.
I am trying.
♥
The days are filled with thoughts of you,
and should I find myself not thinking of you,
I gasp for fear that I am forgetting you.
♥
I have learned to value life, you have taught me this.
To see the beauty in each day given to me,
even through this veil of sad darkness.
I know it is there waiting for me.
♥
Someday the sadness will lift
and I will only think of you
with a smile and warmness in my heart.
My love for you will always be there
that shall never pass
and I hope somehow you know this too.
♥
Your memory is only a heartbeat away.
I shall always love,
I shall always long for you,
I shall always wish to have you back.
And I shall live -- if only for you.
♥

✿ GOOD EVENING SWEET ANGEL.......✿
✿ Chat rooms, grief books, support emails, some heavy and some light,
have kept me from feeling isolated especially late into the night.
As I sit at my computer by the window reading and responding to my 'new kin,'
passerby neighbours who may see me have no idea what lies within.
Outward appearances are so deceptive, I have to give a smile,
but I get such comfort here in this transparent world, if only for a while.
My new unseen friends are a lot like me, and they span across the globe,
It's amazing how comfortable I am 'chatting' with them as I sit here in my robe!
Inventions may come and go and we all have our favourite one,
For me it's the Internet which I use to help me deal with the loss of my son.
I'll send this little ditty to all my friends who I'll never get to meet but on whom I lean,
And I'd like to say thank you and God bless us all, who read this on their screen.✿
