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

Strangers become Friends
A group of strangers, not one familiar face
How could any comfort, be found in this place?
Searching for answers, looking to find
Some hope, some understanding, or just peace of mind.
Someone to tell us we're not going insane
These emotions we're feeling, a way of dealing with pain.
The sorrow in our hearts, the future we fear
Will any of this sadness ever really disappear?
We laugh, we cry, as a way to get by.
We share, we care, to lessen our despair.
We listen, we hear, to understand our fear.
We joke, we cope, in search of some hope.
What brought us together, that allowed our paths to cross
Was the shared experience and the pain of a loss.
The loss of a child, so precious, so dear
Is what binds us together and brought us all here.
We've gained strength with each passing day
And with the help of those around us , we are finding our way.
For we can now justify, what it is we feel
And with this added strength we will continue to heal.
What strongly bonds us, not everyone comprehends
How a group of total strangers, has now become friends.
nite nite xx
Little One, Little One
Little one, little one,
Where have you gone?
Your going has darkened
The brightest dawn.
Why did you leave us
So soon, so soon?
Where can we look for you?
Over the moon?
On butterflies' wings?
In the heart of a rose?
Who knows, who knows
Where a little one goes?
HE ONLY TOOK MY HAND
Last night while I was trying to sleep,
My son's voice I did hear
I opened my eyes and looked around
But he did not appear.
He said "Mum you've got to listen,
You've got to understand
God didn't take me from you, Mum
He only took my hand
When I called out in pain that night,
The instant that I died,
He reached down and took my hand,
And pulled me to his side.
He pulled me up and saved me
From the misery and pain
My body was hurt so badly inside,
I could never be the same.
My search is really over now,
I've found happiness within,
All the answers to my empty dreams
And all that might have been.
I love you and miss you so,
And I'll always be nearby.
My body's gone forever,
But my spirit will never die!
And so, you must go on now,
Live one day at a time.
Just understand-
God did not take me from you,
He only took my hand.

HAVING READ YOUR STORY IN THE PAPER I FOUND MYSELF UNABLE TO STOP THINKING ABOUT YOUR BEAUTIFUL LITTLE ANGEL WHAT A WEE STAR HE WAS, IS, ALWAYS WILL BE. MY THOUGHTS ARE WITH YOU ALL AND MY PRAYERS TOO.
Angel
Every day and every night
When you feel the need
to hold me tight
Just blow a kiss into the sky
for i will be that close by
In the heavens throughout the day
I watch over you and hear you pray
I see you smile and shed a tear
For you know that im still near
I'm the angel of your eye
Your angel in the sky
