Maisie was a beautiful little girl taken away from us after just 2 days.
She was born by emergency c section following a routine 39 weeks ante natal check up where we
discovered her heartbeat was very slow due the umbilicl cord being wrapped very tightly around her
foot.
As our local hospital HRI no longer has emergency maternity services i had to be taken to another
hospital over half an hour away,this time was critical and we believe cost Maisie her life had we
been able to go to our local HRI she would have been delivered in half the time and would not have
suffered the brain damage to the extent that she did and subsequently would still be here with us
now.
after she was born she was transfered to St James's neo natal unit for intensive care where the
staff there did eveything they could for our little angel but unfortunatly it was too late the
damage had already been done and was irrepairable and there was no more they could for her she had
suffered lack of oxygen to her brain and we had to make the painful decision to take her off life
support and let her be peaceful.
She died in the arms of her mummy and daddy and she fell into a peaceful sleep.
We will never forget our special little girl and we will always be thankful for the time we got with
her although it was only 2 days.

We love her so much and not a day goes by when we dont miss her and wish she was here with us but
she will always be with us in our hearts until we meet again.

Rest in peace our precious baby girl

Love you always and forever

Mummy and Daddy xxxxxxxxxxx



We now have a Facebook group MOMS (move our maternity services back) and a petition to restore the
services back to Huddersfield to try and stop this happeneing to anyone else if you could please
join the group and sign the petition you really could help us get justice for Maisie and save lives
of babies and mothers in the future.
Thankyou all very much xxx

Special Rose I picked with care
No thorns are on it anywhere
Sweetest petals I could find
Friendship's beauty now defined

Each day when you're sad or blue
This gentle Rose I send to you
So you will know that I am near
Friendships true won't disappear

Forever I will offer you
A flower and a prayer or two
On my mind you'll always be
Grateful for you constantly

If you need me I am here
Every day throughout the year
Knowing that you've been the best
Friendship with a Rose to be blessed.

The world may never notice
ifa snowdrop doesn't bloom,
Or even pause to wonder
If the petals fall too soon.

But every life that ever forms,
Or ever comes to be,
Touches the world in some small way
For all eternity.

The little one we longed for
Was swiftly here and gone.
But the love that was then planted
Is a light that still shines on.

And though our arms are empty,
Our hearts know what to do.
Every beating of our hearts
Says that we love you.x

Ask my mum how she is ...

My Mum she tells a lot of lies,
She never did before,
But from now until she dies,
She'll tell a whole lot more.

Ask my Mum how she is,
And because she can't explain,
She will tell a little lie,
Because she can't describe the pain.

Ask my Mum How she is,
She'll say 'I'm alright'
If that's the truth, then tell me,
Why does she cry each night?

Ask my Mum how she is,
She seems to cope so well,
She didn't have a choice you see,
Nor the strength to yell.

Ask my Mum how she is,
'I'm fine, I'm well, I'm coping'
For God's sake Mum, just tell the truth,
Just say your heart is broken.

She'll love me all her life,
I loved her all of mine,
But if you ask her how she is,
She'll lie and say she's fine.

I am here in Heaven,
I cannot hug from here,
If she lies to you don't listen,
Hug her and hold her near.

On the day we meet again,
We'll smile and I'll be bold,
I'll say 'You're lucky to get in here, Mum,
With all the lies you told!'

So Very Far Away

You're so very far away
And I need you
Every Day...
Even though we're far apart...
I'll keep your memory
in my heart...
I work and work
in every way...
filling the void in every day
Fleeting thoughts of You
Make me wonder
"What to Do"
The thoughts of you, make me smile...
And help me go
the extra mile...
I have a choice to stick or go
And yet in my heart
I already know...
I'll sit and wait and hope and pray...
And never give up
on that day...
When "You and I" will be together...
Every Day
and Forever.........

Friends are like Angels

Friends are like Angels
Who brighten our days.
In all kinds of wonderful,
Magical ways.
Their thoughtfulness comes,
As a gift from above.
And we feel we're surrounded,
By warm, caring love.
Like upside-down rainbows,
Their smiles bring the sun.
And they fill ho-hum moments,
With laughter and fun.
Friends are like angels,
Without any wings.
Blessing our lives,
With the most precious things.

Take a moment of your day
To maybe sit and in your mind
Think of all the precious babies
Yours, theirs and mine

Those whose short lives were over
Before they had really ever begun
Those precious little bundles
Who have made us all a Mum

Their tiny lives have touched us all
And what I want to say
They have brought us all together
Each and every day

The babies whose beautiful faces
In our minds forever will be
Whose names are etched within our hearts
For anyone, the whole world to see

The babies who touched our lives
Who we think of through our tears
I hope in time we will be able to smile
When we remember them through the years

So this week while we remember
All our babies who had to go
We shall show the world we are united
And how we love and miss them so

opened up a box one day
What treasures did I find!
Letters and some photographs
Of days we left behind
I drifted back to yesterday
The thought was oh, so clear
For just a moment, anyway
It felt like you were here
I smile when I think of you
Sometimes I cry so much
I'm all alone without you now
I crave to feel your touch
But God had other plans for you
An Angel he did find
So now my box of memories
Is all that's left behind love as always margo xx
