My darling son Rhys, not a day goes buy that I don`t think of you and wish you were still here with
me. I love you so much you`ll always be my little star in heaven. I never got the chance to spend a
lot of time with you, but the time that I did spend with you I will treasure forever.
On October 18th 1995 you arrived into this world and your daddy and I were overjoyed. 10lb 3oz you
weighed, what a big bruiser you were. What big plans we had for you Rhys. Simply things like buying
your first toy car or train set, things like that people take for granted. Also see you start your
first day at nursey or school. Instead I saw other boys your age being taken to school for the first
time.
My darling Rhys I am so sorry for what I have put you through. You sadly slipped away from me
through this incureable disorder O.T.C. which is fatal in boys. I have been left with so much guilt
not being able to help you, and watching you go through so much pain, and there was nothing anyone
could do to make you well.
The last few years have been of total and utter saddness and I will never heal properly at the loss
of you Rhys.
Only a mother who has been through the same kind of heartache at watching their baby die, could
possibly understand what it done to me. My precious angel you will never be replaced.
Till we meet again
love `n` kisses
always Mammy xxxx

I'm going to tell you something
I hope you'll never have to know.
I'll tell you how a heart can break
And tears can constant flow.
I lost my baby boy you see,
An angel in my eyes
God chose to take his hand one day
And led him to the skies.
But please do not forget my child
He was a person too
And forever he will live
Inside of me and you.
So, please don't ever tell me
That time will heal my pain
Because not even time
Can bring him back again !
Just tell me he is happy
In that land way up above
He's snuggled in an angels wings
All wrapped in Mummy's love.

My precious son Rhys
Sometimes life seems so unbearable ,
but then I remember that out of all the bad things ,
I do have something that makes me want to keep going.
I have you to watch over me.
You are always there,
Having you as my son is like having a guardian angel .
You are a very important part of my life.
Please never forget that Rhys.
Love Daddy. xxxx

MY BROTHER MY LUCKY STAR !
One dark night I looked out of my bedroom window and saw the brightest star I`d ever seen. So I
grabbed my slippers and hurried outside, I looked for that very same star but it had disappeared,
then suddenly the star caught my eye.
I stood silently wondering what would happen next then the star started moving. Closer and closer it
came until it fell into my icy cold hands.
I saw that the star had some sort of reflection in it, it was my baby brother, Rhys. I stared at the
reflection in the star. Then the star lifted out of my hands and flew into the air, so I waved
goodbye and went back inside , and all that is left is a memory to keep .
You loving sister Bethany x

POEMS FOR YOU RHYS

This 1st Poem was read out at his funeral
God saw you were weary
No cure was ment to be
He put his arms around you
And whispered “Come to me
Hold him in your arms Lord
Look after him with care
Make up for what he`s suffered
And all the seems unfair.
He suffered much in his short life
He fought until the end,
Treasure our Rhys Lord
In your Garden Of Rest
Had he been here on earth
He`d have been one of the best.

FULL OF FLOWERS

The day you first entered this cruel world of ours
It felt like our garden was all full of flowers
The sun it shone brightly so high in the sky
And my heart was so happy I thought I would fly
But soon the cruel winter destroyed all our flowers
And where there was sunshine only showers
But though your life ended before it begun
We`ll never forget you our dear little son.


GOODBYE MY SON

As I sit here with a broken heart
I wonder how our God could part
A mother and her baby son
Whose partnership had just begun.
You`d learned to smile
And pulled my hair
A mother knows how much I cared
I held you from you`re birth to end,
My little baby, my little friend.
As daddy said “Goodbye My Son”
I thought we`d never carry on.
We miss you so our little man
And hope we`ll join you when we can.
Until that day please do take care,
And know that we are always there,
If you need us we`ll be here
To kiss away your angel tears.
Forever you`ll be in our hearts
There`s nothing can keep us apart
So baby until we meet again
Our love for you will ease our pain.
