Jack Macpherson aged 21 months
Jack flew to heaven on April 29th 2008. He had bravely fought a terrible illness called KRABBES
DISEASE.
Jack was born July 2006, he was a healthy baby who brought so much love and joy to our lives. He
developed normally until he was 6 months old. Within a few weeks he lost all of his skills he was
unable to move, could no longer feed, had poor vision, no smile, he was very ill indeed. We were
told that he may only have a few months left with us and that most babies will not reach 13 months
old. We were devestated, but determind that we would look after him the best we could and make sure
that we enjoyed everyday we had with him.
Jack was a fighter and proved his doctors wrong. He lived much longer than we imagined and we have
so many good memories. He was such an inspiration to me and to all that met him, he will never be
forgotten.
We miss him so much and struggle to accept that he is gone, the house is quiet without him. But we
remember the happy times and we know he is now at peace to laugh and run and play.
Love you my Wee Jack Mac xxxxxxxx

What makes a Mother
I thought of you and closed my eyes
And prayed to God today.
I asked what makes a Mother
And I know I heard him say.
A Mother has a baby
This we know is true.'
But God, can you be a Mother
When your baby's not with you?
Yes, you can, He replied
With confidence in His voice
I give many women babies
When they leave is not their choice.
Some I send for a lifetime
And others for a day.
And some I send to feel your womb
But there's no need to stay.
I just don't understand this, God
I want my baby here
He took a breath and cleared His throat
And then I saw a tear.
I wish I could show you
What your child is doing today.
If you could see your child smile
With other children and say:
"We go to earth to learn our lessons
Of love and life and fear.
My Mommy loved me oh so much
I got to come straight here.
I feel so lucky to have a Mom
Who had so much love for me
I learned my lesson very quickly
My Mommy set me free.
I miss my Mommy oh so much
But I visit her each day.
When she goes to sleep
On her pillow's where I lay.
I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek
And whisper in her ear.
"Mommy don't be sad today
I'm your baby and I'm here."
So you see my dear sweet one
Your children are ok
Your babies are here in My home
And this is where they'll stay.
They'll wait for you with Me
Until your lesson is through.
And on the day that you come home
They'll be at the gates for you.
So now you see what makes a Mother
It's the feeling in your heart.
It's the love you had so much of
Right from the very start.
Though some on earth may not realize
You are a Mother until their time is done.
They'll be up here with Me one day
And you know you're the best one!
Jack - what a handsome fella you are. I bet you have the angel chicks falling all over you little man. Please send mummy a really special kiss and cuddle as I know she misses you so much. Give my Joseph a great big kiss from me (although he'll probably groan). We really do miss you all and hope and know you are all playing together and causing lots of trouble :) with love, God bless xxxxx

There must be borrowed angels, here in this life
they come along, into this world
and make this world bright
but they can't stay forever, cause their heven sent
and sometimes, heaven needs them back again

The day your angel wings took flight,
a beautiful new star lit up the night,
our tragic loss is heavens gain,
our hearts feel heavy with this pain.
With the angels you will soar,
in our hearts forever more,
sleep tight angel child, please stay close by,
and watch over us from your cloud up high.
Tiny angel, so perfect in every way,
we think of you with so much love,
each and every day.
