*** Lucy's 2nd little sister Miya arrived on 15th January 2011 @ 6.27am she is just perfect like Lucy and all her sisters......***
*** Lucy became a big sister on 3rd April 09 at 2.55am when her little sister Jade Lucy Dunne made her entrance into the world. She looks so like her two big sisters Kate and Lucy ... I've added a photo to Lucys gallery thanks so much to everyone for their support and I will catch up with all your angels candles soon - love to you all Ali xxx ***
Our precious baby girl Lucy who arrived on earth 18th April 2007 and entered heaven on 30th September 2007 aged 5.5 months.
Lucy was such a good baby perfect - maybe too perfect from the day she arrived in the early hours of her due date she lit up our lives. Life was busy busy as her big sis Kate was just gone 18 months when Lucy was born but we loved every minute of it... Our perfect family just how we had always imagined and hoped..
I feel ready now to tell the full story of 'that' day - the day Lucy left us :
We put Lucy to bed as normal the night of Sat 29th Sept and coming into the early hours of Sun 30th Sept Lucy woke up ... I didnt wake with her Daddy took her up and said she settled very quick but he took her into the bed to give her a little cuddle....
A few hours later I woke up - I will never ever forget the feeling I had that morning when I opened my eyes it was a cold feeling I instantly looked to Lucys cot and she wasnt there and I start screaming to Mick 'Where is she - somethings wrong with Lucy !'... He told me to calm down she was lying beside him and I looked - there she was so pale I said to him - shes not breathing shes dead ! he tried to convince himself that she wasnt but I took her in my arms and why I dont know I put my fingers in her mouth thinking she might have swallowed her tongue or for some reaction but nothing - I will never forget the cold of her gums....
At this stage all I can remember is screaming and I could hear myself saying what "what am I going to do ?? ".... I screamed for my Mam to come down the stairs to my room all I wanted was for her to say everything will be ok I'll never forget asking her was Lucy dead and she was just hysterical aswell and said ' I think so '.
Its all a blur then I went downstairs and Mick had her on the table on her changing mat working on her with the ambulance crew on the phone telling him what to do he gave me the phone at one stage but I dont even know what I was saying to be honest...
Next of all I remember the fire brigade coming and the ambulance they seemed to be only there for a minute when a fire officer came out I'll never forget it grabbed his arm and asked was my baby ok he lifted his head and I could see he was crying and that was it I knew.....
They told us we couldnt travel in the ambulance that the fire brigade would take us to the hospital but as some stage one of our neighbours came out and drove us to the hospital...
All the way there Mick kept telling me she would be ok but I knew, I think he did aswell but was just trying to comfort me....
We got to the hospital and after falling up the steps and into the reception (still in pj's and ugg boots) we were met by the chaplin ... I wouldnt even walk to the room with her because I didn't want to hear the words.... I dont know how we got to the room but we did we passed the resussitation room where they were working on our little girl but I didnt even see Mick told me about it after...
Just after we were brought into the room a doctor came in and asked me to sit down I wouldnt I said to her just tell me I know already... Mick pleaded with me to sit down and listen until they tell me what they are doing to help her and I just remember saying they are doing nothing - shes gone and demanded to the doctor to tell me - which she did I felt like stone when she said the words ' I'm sorry ' and Mick just seemed to fall apart....
Within minutes our family was there and we were brought into a room where they had Lucy she was so beautiful I just couldnt hold her though it was as if rolls reversed in minutes Mick was amazing he just held her and sat there with her for hours ... I just fell apart and it seemed like hours before I could hold my baby girl... I came home and got her blanket - Mick stayed with her and when I went back we wrapped her in her blanket and put her in the crib they had - I'll never forget walking out of the hospital that day - what are you supposed to do ?
We were told the next day Mon 1st Oct that the post mortem would take place.... We were able to go back that evening and take our baby girl home for one last night...
She looked so beautiful in her Christening gown - her godfather and aunt bought a new white moses basket and we brought her home in that with her pictures and teddies beside her... close family and friends came to see her that evening ...
The next morning Tues 2nd Oct was the day that our baby girl was laid to rest.... We had most of the morning at home with her and after some last cuddles with all the family - Daddy & Mammy put her into her tiny little white coffin .... I dont know how we done it but I promised her Lucy we brought you into the world we will be the ones to bring you out, your Mammy & Daddy.... So we closed our little girl's coffin and carried her out to the funeral cars and on our laps to the church....
I'll never forget all the people who turned to to pay respect to Lucy I was amazed at the impact a 5.5 month old girl can have on a community and I am so proud of her for that.... So Daddy & Mammy carried her into the church for her funeral mass I cant really remember much if it but all the family took a part....
We then carried her back out of the church and on our laps to the cemetry ... She was then laid to rest with my Dad / her grandad. We released lots of pretty pink balloons as I didnt want all her little cousins looking into the ground I'll always remember all the balloons travelling in the one direction towards where we live.
Its just been a bit of a blur since then.....
Lucy left behind her heartbroken Mammy & Daddy, her big sis Kate and all her family who love and miss her so so much.. And she has now met her grandad who we are sure has her safe & warm.
** 21/02/2008 - We received post mortem results today. Lucy's cause of death has been confirmed as Sudden Unexpected Death in Infancy - Cot Death **
' All the stars are coming out tonight, their lighting up the sky tonight for you '
Our precious angel, too perfect for this world xx
I have a little daughter, who means the world to me
She's living with the Angels and is as special as can be
And even though she's up there, playing in the clouds
She's still my precious daughter and I am so very proud
Her picture takes pride of place on my living room wall
Ready to be admired by all who come to call
I know I can not hold her, or bounce her on my knee
But I only have to close my eyes, her little face to see
I never will stop missing her and wishing she were here
But sometimes I feel, indeed I know that she is very near
So play happily my little daughter, you will never be forgot
I love you so and always will, though I miss you such a lot.
Sweet dreams baby girl love Mammy & Daddy xxxxxxx
A child who loses its parent is called an orphan
A man who looses his wife is called a widower
A woman who looses her husband is called a widow
However, there is no name for a parent who looses a child
There is no word to describe such pain

Thinking of you at Christmastime
You're in my thoughts today
You've only gone to Heaven
To watch over us each day.
Today we'll spend together
just like we always do
I'm sending Christmas Wishes
with love
from me to you.
Christmas blessings

Christmas without you here with me,
can never possibly be the same.
But I carry an Angel within my heart;
one so precious, who has your name.
An Angel forever watching over me,
at Christmas time, and over the year.
Although you can't be here anymore,
inside my heart, you are so very near.
There is no special present for you,
wrapped up under my Christmas tree.
But I have a greater gift to give to you;
all the love you can still feel from me.
No, Christmas time without you here,
could not ever possibly be the same.
But, I have had the precious gift of you,
and the memories and love, will remain.
� Pamela Hall
All my love Sylvie

Tributes For Week Commencing 7th November 2011

-----------’R’’---(_)-(_)…………Precious
MONDAY
In our hearts your memory lingers
Sweetly tender, fond and true,
There is not a day, dear angel
That we do not think of you.
TUESDAY
We know that you're beside us,
In everything we do,
But life's just not the same
Now that we've lost you
WEDNESDAY
Things I feel most deeply
Are the hardest things to say
My dearest one, I love you
In a very special way
THURSDAY
Your life was a blessing
Your memory a treasure
You are loved beyond words
And missed beyond measure
FRIDAY
I'm sending a dove to heaven
With a parcel on its wings.
Be careful how you open it
It’s full of beautiful things
Inside are a million kisses
Wrapped up in a million hugs
To say how much you mean to us
And send you all our love
Author Unknown
SATURDAY
Babies are angels
That fly to earth
Their wings disappear
At the time of there birth
One look in their eye
And we're never the same
They're part of us now
And that part has a name
That part is your heart
And a bond that won’t sever
Our babies are angels
And we love them forever
Anon
SUNDAY
Just the average family
We didn't ask for more.
Then life was changed completely
With that knock upon our door.
This awful thing had happened
And none of us knew why.
You were never coming back again
And we didn't say goodbye.
Our world just fell to pieces
We cried with disbelief.
We had to stick together
To overcome our grief.
We'll never understand it
It all seems so unfair.
We wish we'd hear that knock again
And see you standing there.

Free the butterflies-
I'll be there
to see them soar
upon the air.
Know my spirit
is on the wing,
feel my laughter-
hear me sing.
Forever in your dreams
always in your heart.
