Elaine was called Double trouble by the nurses on the hospital wards and to be honest, she was
trouble especially when you crossed her line and she never passed unnoticed. she enjoyed playing
games with nurses, doctors and cheering up other sick children in the hospital. This made Elaine vey
popular in every hospital she visited, staffs would call on her if a sick child is scared of putting
a feeding tube down her nose and, Elaine would tell the child how easy it is and that it was not
painful, you just feel a bit uncomfortable though,she confessed to me that it was a bit painful and
she were only saying it for the children'sake. She always wanted things her way no other way. Elaine
was the controlling type and little miss bossy. She loved pink and purpple colours, dancing to
Jamelia number; DJ give me a bit more and Beyonce's music. She was a best friend of dolphins whom
she said were very friendly and loving animals and she was scared of sharks.
Elaine was not only double trouble, but also a very talented, sweet, loving, caring, intelligent and
a very brave little girl who a lot of people thought she had lived past her years. Elaine was always
smiling, cheerful, loving and full of strength. At 3years, Elaine was diagnosed with childhood
cancer of the kidney (Wilm's tumur). I was really scared and worried that l was going to lose her
and, l will never forget that moment. Fortunately, Elaine battled this cancer with strong doses of
chemotherapy, radiotherapy and endless visits in the theatre. At 5years, we were given the all
clear, we were on cloud nine, little did we know the worst was about to happen, as one Pastor
said... "when it comes to cancer, it is always around." And surely it was just around somewhere not
very far and finally it cought up with us.
Despite her illness, Elaine lived a very normal life like any child of her age. She enjoyed playing
rough games like tom boy and loved swimming so much though, there was no chance for that as her body
was inserted with tubes and swimming would cause more infections than what she had. The two schools
she attended, she was held so special and loved by all the pupils and the teachers. In a way, she
hated it as all the time her fellow pupils wanted to help her thinking she wouldn't be able to do
it. She also enjoyed helping mummy at home with domestic chores like making her bed, ironing,
washing up, tidying the house and doing the very naughtiest things given a chance.
At 6years, Elaine was diagnosed with Leukaemia (AML) cancer of the blood. Despite Elaine's strength
and her much love for life, she couldn't fight anymore!!! She felt something she could not put in
words a sense of helplessness or weakness.. as one day she said to me " mum have you ever felt the
way i feel?"l asked her how and she demostrated with little words... "you know how you feel like you
are tired, and you don't want to sleep but you have to because you are exhousted?" "That is how l
feel." That was an indicator that her body was each passing day getting weaker and weaker a thing
she termed "my body is failing me."
She felt it in her body and she told me she can not carry on any more like the way she felt!!! She
said l needed a life not going from one hospital to another and l was pregnant with her baby sister.
We all cried that day and she told me not to worry because all of us were going to die at one point.
Actually she thought it was her fault for us to be going through what we were going through that
time. l assured her it wasn't and l promised to be there for her any time all the time. She said
all she wanted was to see her baby sister, who was still in my tummy by then, and came during
Elaine's hardest times in her life. But, that did not stop Elaine from sharing with her baby sister
what she wished to share most with every one around her, "PASSION," they grew fond of each other
despite the hard times Elaine was going through.
But, even before her baby sister was born, Elaine had told me to name the baby Rianne after her best
teacher, Ria who was her best friend and whom she called "my other mum" and Ria's mum Yvonne. She
thought the way things where going, she won't live any longer to see her baby sister. Thank God,
she saw her, played with her, dressed her and bathed her whenever she could. Elaine got so tired of
the treatment and staying in the hospital that all she said to me was... "mom my body is failing me,
it cannot take this anymore, am not gonna get any better, this is not me at all, l want to sleep,
please let me go mummy."
Elaine went to sleep on the 5th of May 2006 at 9.53 am. She was only 7years and 12days old and her
little sister was 7months. Her absence, has never meant so to my family, we always feel her presence
everywhere, although Rianne is not yet the talking age, but from her curiosity, l strongly believe
that there are lots of questions l will never find answers, they had became fond of each other.
I miss Elaine every day of my life am just waiting and longing and looking forward to Rianne to
grow up, and tell her what a wonderful sister you were and still is. Though gone away from me, she
is still my loving little daughter!!! ELAINE, you touched so many lives and you are missed
desperately by us all. Elaine, we will never forget you and we will always treasure the short time
we were able to spend with you. You brought so much joy and love in my life and l am so proud of
you. Each day that goes by you are always in my heart never will l ever forget you. Miss your
charming smile, the hugs and kisses, hear you call mummy and your endless love. May your Soul Rest
in Eternal peace!!
Much love always,
Your heartbroken Mummy Christine, Daddy Tom and sisters, Rianne and baby Selena who never got a
chance to share your passion.
You may not be able to see me,
Though you think that I am gone.
Inside your heart you carry me,
So I live on, I live on.
I know you feel an emptiness,
Of words we left unsaid.
Release your pain, forgive yourself,
For I already did.
The love you gave, I took with me,
And left my love for you.
So now I know some time has passed,
Here is what I ask of you.
Share my life and remember me,
To those you love – out loud.
And I will become part of them,
For that would make me proud.
Those little quirks, the quips I said,
Please share those memories.
For there is no plaque or stone,
That would better honor me.
I loved you then, and love you still,
And will forevermore.
So take my love and pass it down,
That’s what my legacy is for.
Give my memories, my love as gifts,
And do not mourn that I have gone.
Just place my love in your Heart always
And you will know that I live on.
ALL MY LOVE GLORIA ANTHONY'S MOM XOXO
♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ PRECIOUS CHILD ♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥
A child is such a precious gift
To love to hold to treasure
A very special miracle
Who gives so much pleasure
But when that gift is taken back
And our hearts are cold and torn
Amid this grief and sorrow
We are so glad that they were born
For they have a precious legacy
Even though we are far apart
The love they left behind them
Will stay forever in our hearts
Author Unknown
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ YOU WILL LIVE ON Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ
I need to say goodbye although you're with me.
I stand beside your grave, yet you are here.
I miss you terribly and hope you miss me,
But when I turn to you, you're always near.
I talk to you as though you lived within me,
Not changed but simply moved in from outside.
I know each day you must a little leave me,
But here, as always, you must be my guide.
You were and are and will be, just as ever,
In many minds and hearts, not only mine.
No physical event can such love sever;
Death is a dimension, not a line.
And so goodbye does not mean you are gone:
So long as I still love you, you live on.

Hope...Time...Love...Healing...
Tomorrow will come. The pain will ease,
But you will never forget your precious child.
It takes hope, time, and love for the healing to take place.
Remember along the way to accept, but never forget.
Love lives longer than grief or pain...
All other things pass, but love will remain.
A bond that nothing can sever,
Because love lasts forever.
Our hearts are broken. Our world seems like it has ended.
Our dreams, our hopes, and our future with this child are over.
Our precious child has died.
God sends his little angels, in many forms and guises,
They come as lovely miracles, that God alone devises.
What we have once enjoyed and deeply loved we can never lose.
For all that we love deeply becomes a part of us.
Helen Keller

~~ The Angels ~~
May angels rest beside your door
May you hear their voices sing
May you feel their loving care for you
May you hear their peace bells ring
May angels always care for you
And not let you trip and fall
May they bear you up on angels wings
May they keep you standing tall
May they whisper wisdom in your ear
May they touch you when you need
May they remove you from each trace of fear
May they keep you from feeling greed
May they fill you with their presence
May they show you love untold
May they always stand beside you
And make you ever bold
May they teach you what you want to know
About life here and here-after
May they fill you always with their love
And give you the gift of laughter
~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~
~~ Angel In My Pocket ~~
I am a tiny angel
I'm smaller than your thumb
I live in peoples pockets
That's where I have my fun
I don't suppose you've seen me
I'm too tiny to detect
Though i'm with you all the time
I doubt we've ever met
Before I was an angel...
I was a fairy in a flower
God himself hand picked me
And gave me angel power
Now god has many angels
That he trains in angel pools
We become his eyes and ears and hands
We become his special tools
And because god is so busy
With way too much to do
He said that my assignment
Is to keep close watch on you
When he tucked me in your pocket
He blessed you with angel care
Then told me to never leave you
And I vowed always to be there
~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~
~~ Guardian Angels ~~
When angels sense you need them
and angels always do.....
they come unseen from everywhere
to help and comfort you
they hover close beside you
till all your cares are gone
till they can see you're ready
once again to carry on
Then some of them may fly away
and take their gentle touch
to other hearts that need
the love of angels very much
but one at least stays with you
as your constant friend and guide
for guardian angels never leave
they're always at your side
~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~
Lots Of Love Always ~~ Elaine...x♥x
MY CHILD
I feel as though my heart must stop with pain.
I miss you so, the darkness will not pale.
My darling child, come to me again.
I know you cannot come, and still I strain
To put my arms around you through the veil.
I feel as though my heart must stop with pain.
Other lives and loves call me in vain.
I try to turn away from you and fail.
My darling child, come to me again.
You are my unendurable refrain.
Back and back I hurry to impale
My heart on you, to stop my heart with pain.
Yet nothing that I do undoes the plain
Brutal fact which always must prevail.
Ah, my darling, come to me again!
You are both my sunshine and my rain,
My dearest joy, my anguish, and my grail.
I feel as though my heart must stop with pain.
My darling child, come to me again.

Light a candle for those we mourn.
Into a new life they will be born.
Do not look for them at the gravesite.
They are somewhere else radiating their beautiful light.
They have gone to a new world where there is no darkness, no pain.
Their light and essence will always remain.
Light a candle for those who have left this mortal place.
They are free to travel through time and space.
When we think of them, they are near.
When we sit in a beautiful garden. Their voices we hear.
When we listen to a divine symphony,
We close our eyes, their faces we see.
Light a candle for they have not really gone.
With each flickering flame, in your hearts they will always belong
All My Love Gloria Anthony's Mom xoxo

Along life’s road are SMILESTONES
They light the way folk go
Who put one there to light my way
Only MY ANGEL could know.
When I see it shining,
Life’s load seems easier to bear
I thank God for the SMILESTONE
MY ANGEL placed it there
