Our little boy was born with so many problems but was a real fighter he proved so many doctors
wrong. he had such an infectious smile and really enjoyed everythin about life but this was one
fight he couldnt win and he passed away in our arms after a battle for 3 weeks. Love u always miss u
forever x x x

A Butterfly lites beside us
like a sunbeam
and for a brief moment,
its beauty and glory
belong to our world.

But then it flies on again.
And though we wish it could have stayed
we feel so lucky to have seen it.

Aled had Down Syndrome, Dighramatic Hunia, Hole in the heart, Broncial malasia and a few other
problems.

Aled Milligan Was born in the heath hospital in Cardiff on the 29th of September at 4.30pm We knew
he was going to be ill but we also knew he was a fighter to get this far. After he was born Aled had
a very long fight where he was transferred to great Ormond street hospital as he was so ill. They
managed to get him back to Carmarthen special care baby unit when he was 3 weeks old. He stayed
there for 3 months where even though his condition was slowly detirating he learned to smile, he
learned who his family was and he learned to get what he wanted. The staff cared for him so well. At
3 months old he was transferred to Bristol hospital for his second dangerous surgery which was on
his heart, but before the operation he caught an infection and became very unwell, but again the
doctors and nurses saved his life and he quickly bounced back with their help, but this was the time
we discovered he could not survive without a ventilator. The doctors and nurses were fantastic and
told us about getting him home and that he could lead a happy life even with his problems, but there
was still the heart surgery. The surgery made him very ill and we came very close to losing him but
again with the doctor’s help he fought back. After 2 months in Bristol children’s hospital he
returned to the heath hospital in Cardiff to try and get him to improve enough to go on the home
ventilator. The doctors weren’t sure if he could but again he fought all his lung problems and
after 2 months in pediatric ICU he finally got on the home ventilator. Whilst in ICU they started to
help him enjoy life we found out he loved baths, loved books and tried so hard to make his little
body work. After 2 months he moved down to the high dependency unit where he stayed for 2 months.
They took him out side for the first time; they introduced him to painting, food play, and many more
fun things. He really thrived starting to laugh, sit up, and loved any attention any one gave him.
He wrapped the nurses and doctors around his little finger with his larger than life smile and
cheeky face. His last stop before home was the transitional care unit in the children’s hospital
for Wales. There we were taught to look after his medical needs but also to have fun with. Every new
experience seemed to make him fight to be stronger he was so determined to enjoy every part of life.
They took him over the park where he discovered swings, they took him for picnics and they helped
his brother become very close to Aled. On the 29th of November 2007 Aled finally came home for the
first time. It was very hard but with help from friends and family we got use to looking after him.
His home nurses were amazing and they were instantly under Aled`s spell. He thrived even more and
was determined to be like his brother he learned to crawl, use sign language, some speech; he even
learned even how to be naughty and to get what he wanted. He was always determined to do everything
even if he wasn’t allowed. He would pull his ventilator off if he wanted our attention. He would
pull his feed over if he wanted it turned off. Aled loved his life at home and everyone loved him he
would never complain about having treatment and his face would light up when any members of his
development team would arrive. He was like any other 2 year old and would have a shout if he did not
like something or throw a tantrum if he could not get what he wanted. Aled loved to go but could
never get use to sand or grass when We would take him to town you could see the sorrow in people`s
faces as they passed Aled but then he would pull one off his cheeky smiles and the person would
smile back. Aled sadly passed away after a 3 week battle with the flu virus but it damaged his lungs
to much, the worst thing is he never stoped fightin but he couldnt win. Aled always brought joy to
anyone who met him and that will be missed. Aled will be missed by everyone but remember the
cheekiness , smile , his quite shouts and all the mischief he got up too.

Sometimes it's hard to understand,
To see the reason why,
Sometimes it's hard to find the words,
To say that last goodbye.

Sometimes it's hard to look ahead,
With eyes still filled with tears,
But all our cherished memories,
Will live on through the years.

And though there are no answers,
The questions still remain,
Sometimes we just can't comprehend,
Or understand the pain.

Sometimes it's hard to look beyond,
The rainclouds in the sky,
Though all our cherished memories,
Will stay as time goes by.

Sometimes when we close our eyes,
The only thing we see,
Are moments that are long gone by,
Of how things used to be.

Sometimes we need to just let go,
Let tears fall as they may,
Reliving cherished memories,
That never fade away.


THANKYOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO TO KEEP MY DAUGHTERS MEMORY ALIVE

What kind of place would heaven be with all its streets of gold, if all the souls, that dwell up there like yours and mine, were old? How strange would heaven’s music sound when harps begin to ring, if children were not gathered ‘round to help the angels sing. The children that God sends to us are only just a loan, He knows we need their sunshine to make the house a home. We need the inspiration of a baby’s blessed smile. He doesn’t say they’ve come to stay, just lends them for a while. Sometimes it takes them years to do the work for which they come. Sometimes in just a month or two our Father calls them home. I like to think some souls up there bear not one sinful scar. I love to think of heaven as a place where children are.

Rebeca Stevens (GTS Friend) Yesterday morning

I had a dream last night..
Like the night before
That a beautiful angel came..
And knocked at my door

I opened the door..
With much delight
There was my angel
Glowing so bright

I could not believe it..
I had to wipe my eyes
For my angel had flown..
Down from the sky

I held my angel so very tight
In my dream I had last night
Was it a dream?
Or was I awake?
I hope it was real..
For mine and my angels sake.

I dont know how to cope any more. I feel like i am not a good mother to kyle because i should beable to procect him like i should of protected you and i keep failing. I am so sorry i failed.

Life is so unfair no matter how hard we try it dosent seem to make a differance. Kyle is suffering so much and i wish i could take all his pain away. I just hope i dont also fail with rhiannon aswell. I must be such a bad mother..

I love you so much and miss you so much my heart is torn and will never mend. Just watch your brother for me and try to keep him safe. and help the doctors figer out what is wrong with him instead of gessin like they have don for the last 5 years

Do you think?.............

Do you think that I am over it
Better than before
Maybe I've forgotten
Doesn't hurt me anymore?

Do you think that I am doing fine
No tears are shed each day
Get up and just get going
Pain has all but gone away?

Do you think that I am coping
Living life just as you do
If that's what you imagine...
You don't have a single clue.

I cope, I cry, and I deny
I've learned how I must hide
Keep everything within me
Bottled up deep down inside.

I can't be who I was before
I've changed I'm someone new
It happens when you have a loss
You would be different too.

I'm so misunderstood each day
To tired to explain
Not over it, or better
Simply put... I'm not the same.

And will never be because you left me.

You were one of a kind.

I think of you often
Mostly at the night
Where dreams help to soften
A love that felt so right.

I know you'l always be with me
Right till the very end
Until the day we meet again
My heart will never mend.

Ten Tiny Fingers - by Sandy

Ten tiny fingers, upon your little hand,
Ten dainty toes on your feet, to help you stand.
I look into your sleeping face, and my heart is filled with love.
How can something so beautiful, now be an Angel above.
Your eyelashes so long, upon your sweet face.
No one will ever take your place.

The joy we all waited for, is now replaced by tears.
The numbers, the heartache, along with all our fears.
I want to hold you in my arms, and never let you go.
My darling child, how I love you so.

A part of me went with you, the day you were called home.
I feel my world has stopped, and I feel so much alone.
I gently place you down, for one last time.
Tears are on my face, as I whisper, “peace be thine”

Without you, I am nothing, and never will be again.
All I feel is heartache, and a huge huge pain.
My darling child, you will be loved, and missed single everyday.
Goodbye is too final a word for me to ever say.

God only gave you to us to borrow,
Loved today, yesterday,
And for all tomorrows

Im a Precious little Angel
I grew my wings 2 soon
To Fly Up To a Magical Garden
Thats up beside the Moon
It has lots of other little Angel's
Some even look like me
They sit upon their bright stars at night
And twinkle for mummy to see
When its time to go to sleep
We snuggle up nice & tight
The bigger Angels, they tuck us all in
Then its time for us to say Goodnight x x x x
