This is our beautiful baby boy Charlie and this is his story.
Born at 25 weeks gestation; 15 weeks too early weighing 2lb 1oz.
He wasnt expected to survive the traumatic birth we both had to go through.....but he did.
At 2 days old he had a grade 4 IVH (brain bleed) and he wasnt expected to survive the night.....but he did.
At 9 days old he was rushed to alder hey for an emergency operation on his bowel; they had to leave his bowel on the surface of his tummy until it repaired itself.....he recovered better than expected.
Little Charlie was such a fighter and seemed to be going from strength to strength. Breathing on CPAP, no longer needing the ventilator, he even started having small amounts of mummys milk.
Then something started to go wrong, he stopped weeing, back on the ventilator, and the doctors didnt know why?
Then at 24 days old a brain scan showed a build up of fluid and he was diagnosed with PVL.
The doctors basically told us that his quality of life would be worse than we could imagine. So we decided guided by the doctors to let Charlie go asleep with the angels.
We changed his nappy and dressed him; then that night they brought him to us in a little room; no ventilator, no wires, just our Baby Charlie with his Mummy and Daddy.
He exceded the doctors expectations and breathed for 5 hours by himself. In that time we talked to him, sang to him, told him about his Big Brother Mikey and how much we all loved him. He took his last breath at 11.00pm on the 3/8/2009. They were the best 5 hours of his short little life and the best 5 hours of ours. He was such a little fighter and we will never forget him, ever.
Goodnight our beautiful baby boy, love you more than you can imagine. Sleep peacefully with the angels xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Happy Christmas beautiful boy. Your brothers are all tucked up in bed and Im sat here wishing you were to. We love and miss you sooooo much. Sending lots of love and kisses up to you babe xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
2 years today you grew your wings and flew up to heaven. Me and daddy and Mikey love you sooooo much, and your new baby brother will be here very soon and he will love you just as much as we do.
Tell your nannies Joyce and Shirley and grandad billy that we love them too. Sending all our love always xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
My Birthday in Heaven - by Saralyn Smith
Calling all the Angels
It's a special day today!
For Charlie’s turning two years old!
Here's what he has to say:
'Mummy, please dry all your tears;
I know you miss me so.
And if it had been up to me,
I'd never have chosen to go.'
'For I knew that you would miss me
And the things that we could do,
And I wish I could have stayed on Earth
And lived down there with you.'
'But, Mummy, now I'm well and whole;
I sing and play all day
With all the Angel boys and girls
Who've come to Heaven to stay.'
'Lord Jesus holds us in his arms
And tells us of his love;
He knew that we were hurting--
That's why we came above.'
'I love you, Mummy, every day;
I send you kisses, too.
And some day you will join me here
And I'll always be with you.'
'I've got to go -- the party's on!
We'll sing and dance and play.
But I am always in your heart
I’m never far away.'
'Please find a way to celebrate,
Even if you cry;
Perhaps you'll send me some balloons
Soaring to the sky.'
'And I will know they came from you,
And I'll be flying near.
I send you love and kisses, too.
I love you, Mummy, Dear.'

How will heaven be?
As far as I can see
It will have huge bells
And will be situated on clouds
It will have many golden wells
That will so often swell
Rain will be abundant
And the sun will shine all day long
Angels will play on the harp
The sweetest summer song
Music that will touch the heart
While those beneath will shed drops of sorrow
Little will they know what will happen on the morrow
But to them up above
As plain and clear it will be
As far as far as I can see
Yes there will be misty alleys
And lush green meadows
Fresh with the fragrant smell of spring
Winter will never be bitter
Summer never so hot
Autumn never so bare
And resources never so scarce
Food for all will be relished by all.
Grateful we’ll be as grateful can be
Mountains high and strong and brown
Surrounding that hidden land,
Beautiful and vast seas I see
There colour as blue as sapphire can be
And the white waves lashing upon the shore
Sitting on the flattened grey rocks
Who would not call it absolutely heavenly?
However it might actually be,
But can we still not see
There will lie behind this seen
A relieving feeling of bliss
For where not have we been
But is this not by all believed
That after one’s decease
This is the land of eternal peace
Where we all ultimately reach?

Happy 2nd Christmas
To our very beautiful boy, Charlie.
We love and miss you more than ever, and are sending lots of love and kisses up to you on Christmas day.
Catch them all babe, and remember how much we love you and always will.
Mummy, daddy and Mikey xxxxx
Miss you little man xxx
I do not need a special day
to bring you to my mind
The days I do not think of you
are impossible to find.
Each morning when I wake
I know that you are gone
And no-one knows the heartache
as I try to carry on.
My heart still aches with sadness
and secret tears still flow
what it meant to lose you
No one will ever know.
My thoughts are always with you
your place no-one can fill
In life I loved you dearly
In death I love you still........
XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX
