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

* There You'll Be *


When I think back
On these times
And the dreams
We left behind
I'll be glad 'cause
I was blessed to get
To have you in my life
When I look back
On these days
I'll look and see your face
You were right there for me
*
In my dreams
I'll always see you soar
Above the sky
In my heart
There will always be a place
For you for all my life
I'll keep a part
Of you with me
And everywhere I am
There you'll be
And everywhere I am
There you'll be....
if only.

LOVE JUDE. X

✿ 16TH MARCH 2009 ✿


If I could wish upon a star
I would wish for you back here
I know you're happy where you are
But I miss you and want you near

Although I see you everyday
In my thoughts and in my dreams
I miss you more than words can say
It just gets worse, it seems

I try to be strong for others around
But all I want to do is cry
I just sit for hours by myself
And ask the question 'Why'?

It's the strongest pain I've ever felt
I don't think I could describe it
Although I try, I do my best
I don't think that I can hide it

My life will never be the same
That's why it's hard to bear
Because since the day you left us
I think that life's not fair

Some things seem not to matter now
Even things that mattered before
You have no idea what I would give
To make this pain less sore

People say we'll meet again
And yes I know that's true
But I wish it didn't have to be this way
Because you know how much I miss you

I love you with all my heart and soul
And there's one thing you need to know
There's not one person in the human race
That could ever take your place...


unknown.

❤ I MISS YOU ❤

I know how much I miss you
I feel an emptiness inside
It shows in everything I do
It's something I can't hide.

I simply miss you being there
Life seems dull and flat
Without you nothings quite the same
I can't say more than that.

But one day we will meet again
I know that this is true
But everyday until then
I know I'll just be missing you.



❤ LOVE JUDE.X ❤

Life is but a stopping place,
A pause in what's to be,
A resting place along the road,
To sweet eternity.
ღ ⋱♥⋰ ღ
We all have different journeys,
Different paths along the way,
We are all meant to learn some things,
But never meant to stay.
ღ ⋱♥⋰ ღ
Our destination is a place,
Far greater than we know,
For some the journey's quicker,
For some the journey's slow.
ღ ⋱♥⋰ ღ
But when the journey finally ends,
We'll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the Lord.
ღ ⋱♥⋰ ღ

LOVE JUDE. X

Stay With Me, My Angel.

Stay with me my angel
I need you now and again.

Stay with me my angel
you know your my only friend.

Stay with me my angel
I need your light to live.

Stay with me my angel
your the only one to forgive.

Stay with me my angel
to take the pains away.

Stay with me my angel
in bed is where I pray.

Don't go away my angel
I need you oh so much.

Don't go away my angel
I need a gentle touch.

Don't go away my angel
please take the sins away.

Don't go away my angel
I cannot last another day.

Don't go away my angel
I don't want another tear.

Don't go away my angel
take away all I have to fear.

★ 6TH MARCH 2009 ★

You're with me in memory and in my heart
You're with me always, we're never apart
I talk to you, you hear my call
Cause you pick me up whenever I fall.

I hear your footsteps whenever I walk
I know you listen whenever I talk
I know you are looking down at me
I can't see you but you can see me.

If you ever get time to come back to me
I'll be waiting and I always will be
I'm waiting to see that you are all right
Come anytime, day or night.

But until that time comes, I'll keep waiting for you
And watching your star in the sky of blue
I'll love you forever, you're in my heart
Never, oh never will we be apart.

LOTS OF LOVE, JUDE.X
