The worst day any mother ever would expected came to me on October 10,2006 when the police came to inform me that they found my daughter passed away in her apartment. Toxicology tests proved she had accidently overdosed on methadone, and benzodiazapime. Where she got it from we will never know. How often I have heard of other parents losing their children..but never did I think that I too would experience such a tragic loss. Often I blame myself for the loss..thinking that had I spent more time with her..or showed her that I loved her more then maybe she wouldn't have turned to drugs..It's an endless mind battle. I spoke to her last 2 days before her passsing when we talked about her coming over to have thanksgiving dinner..I was so excited she was coming over..and she was really happy too..we hung up with our I love you's and that was the last I ever heard her sweet voice. Not a day goes by my heart doesn't ache for her..and that I wish she was still here..but I have the comfort of knowing now she doesn't have to suffer with the addiction and depression she was battling. I cherish the happy memories..and will always carry her in my heart..
My Angel forever..




The Broken Chain

We little knew that morning
That God was going to call your name,
In life we loved you dearly,
in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
the day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories,
your love is still our guide.
And though we cannot see you,
you are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us one by one,
the chain will link again.

Better in Time ( lyrics by Leona Lewis)

It's been the longest winter without you
I didn't know where to turn to
See somehow I can't forget you
After all that we've been through

Going coming thought I heard a knock
Who's there no one
Thinking that I deserve it
Now I realize that I really didn't know
If you didn't notice you mean everything
Quickly I'm learning to love again
All I know is I'm gonna be OK

[Chorus:]
Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
And even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time

I couldn't turn on the TV
Without something there to remind me
Was it all that easy
To just put aside your feelings

If I'm dreaming don't wanna laugh
Hurt my feelings but that's the path
I believe in
And I know that time will heal it
If you didn't notice boy you meant everything
Quickly I'm learning to love again
All I know is I'm gonna be OK

[Chorus:]
Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
And even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time

Since there's no more you and me
It's time I let you go
So I can be free
And live my life how it should be
No matter how hard it is I'll be fine without you
Yes I will

[Chorus: X2]
Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
And even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time

If roses grow in Heaven Lord, then pick a bunch for me. Place them in my Daughter's arms and tell her they're from me. Tell her that I love and miss her and when she turns to smile, place a kiss on her cheek and hold her for awhile. Love and Miss You
Love Mom! :o) ♥

Today is 4 yrs without my Angel

...though your smile is gone forever and your hand i cannot touch, i still have so many memories of the one i love so much sadly missed but never forgotten.I can only stay strong for so long, can only take so much...then the tears overflow when i remember the one that was taken from this world with no warning
I love you My Angel and miss you more the all the stars in the sky

If roses grow in Heaven, please pick a bunch for me. Place them in my daughters arms and tell her they're from me. Tell her that I love and miss her, and when she turns to smile, place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for awhile. Because remembering her is easy, I do it every day, but there's an ache within my hear...t that never goes away...I love you my sweet Angel
