Lauren was my niece. She was born on 22 January, 1990 and was a ray of sunshine and a joy to know. She meant the world to me. She loved animals especially horses and her ambition when she was older was to become a vet. Sadly this was not meant to be. Lauren died peacefully at home on 4th April, 2004 after a six month battle with bone cancer. She was 14 years old.
In September 2003 Lauren was taken to hospital with severe pains in her hip and leg. These pains had been occurring for several months but had been dismissed by the GP as growing pains. After x-rays and tests she was transferred to Birmingham Childrens Hospital for further investigation. She returned home a few days later after being diagnosed with Ewings Sarcoma a rare form of bone cancer which affects mainly teenagers and is so rare that only twenty two children in the UK are diagnosed with it each year. After undergoing gruelling chemotherapy treatment at Manchester Childrens Hospital and radiotherapy at Christie Hospital Lauren was diagnosed as being terminally ill. She continued her fight with dignity and courage but the disease had been found too late for any treatment to be successful.
I have lovely, happy memories of Lauren. Those of a pretty, smiling, good natured girl who was growing up and becoming a teenager with everything to look forward to. She loved horse riding and had won many rosettes and trophies which were always kept on display at home. She loved going to school, seeing her friends, music and make up. I remember when she was my bridesmaid when I got married, giggling and excited as she had her hair styled and put on her dress, shoes and tiara and memories of her coming to see me in hospital and holding my son, Andrew after he had been born.
By contrast I have the sad painful memories of watching her become very ill and of her death and the anger and disbelief at never seeing her grow up and blossom any further.
Lauren is greatly missed by her parents, Cath and Gary and her little brother Alex, her grandparents, aunties, uncles, cousins and all of her friends.
God Bless Lauren, our angel in heaven.
Safe In Gods Care and Keeping.

As i float along the milky way
I arrive at heavens door
And to my suprise theres people
And faces ive seen before
I feel happy and elated
A golden gate opened for me
As i step inside this place
Im amazed by what i see
Theres trees lined with gold
There flowers that never die
And teardrop dont exist
Im so happy, but i cant cry
Theres harps playing softly
And friends that i once knew
Hold out their hand to greet me
In the this land of sky blue
Theres a smell of the flowers
Its like nothing ive smelled before
Theres gold dust about my feet
And a welcome on my garden door
Yes i like this place called heaven
Even though i will miss you so
But i will visit you often
Even though you wont know
And as i thank my father beside me
For opening his golden gates
They toast a wine to greet me
The lord and my new found mates

My Dear Family xx
It's me again from Heaven
With a message from above
Feel my spirit all around you
As I sprinkle you with love...
***********
I have watched you, as your tears flow
I have heard your silent screams
I know you sleep with visions
Of me visiting your dreams...
***********
I have come and sat beside you
Placed my hands upon your face
Wiped away the many teardrops
I so wish I could erase...
***********
I have watched you every day now
Seen such pain within your eyes
I just wish that there were some way
I could help you realise...
***********
I am happy up in Heaven
In this peaceful loving place
Where I will be here waiting
To welcome you with my embrace...
***********
You will join me here in Heaven
When your time comes you’ll see
Leave your Earthly cares behind you
Travel on to where you’re free...
**********
I have heard you ask to go now
But there is more for you to do
I promise I'll be waiting
When your time on earth is through ...
♥ღ♥ My eyes have seen the yellow sand,
my ears have heard their cries.
And I have watched a million hands
reach out to wave good-bye.
I've said good-bye so many times.
I've walked the earth alone,
and I have lived a million lives
just searching for my home.
I'll climb the highest mountain peaks,
I'll ford the deepest streams.
I'll touch you with my memories
and hold you with my dreams.
For love's the greatest miracle
our eyes will ever see.
I'm still alive! I will survive ♥ღ♥ xxx
